What two numbers multiply to 151 and add up to 152?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 151 and add up to 152?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 151

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 151 multiply to 151 and add up to 152:

1 × 151 = 151
1 + 151 = 152

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

x² + 152x + 151 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 151)

To summarize, since 1 and 151 multiply to 151 and add up 152, you know that the following is true:

x² + 152x + 151 = (x + 1 ) (x + 151)
