What two numbers multiply to 149 and add up to 150?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 149 and add up to 150?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 149

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 149 multiply to 149 and add up to 150:

1 × 149 = 149
1 + 149 = 150

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x² + 150x + 149 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x + 1 ) (x + 149)

To summarize, since 1 and 149 multiply to 149 and add up 150, you know that the following is true:

x² + 150x + 149 = (x + 1 ) (x + 149)
