What two numbers multiply to 154 and add up to 155?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 154 and add up to 155?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 154

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 154 multiply to 154 and add up to 155:

1 × 154 = 154
1 + 154 = 155

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

x² + 155x + 154 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 154)

To summarize, since 1 and 154 multiply to 154 and add up 155, you know that the following is true:

x² + 155x + 154 = (x + 1 ) (x + 154)
