What two numbers multiply to 174 and add up to 175?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 174 and add up to 175?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 174

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 174 multiply to 174 and add up to 175:

1 × 174 = 174
1 + 174 = 175

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

x² + 175x + 174 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 174)

To summarize, since 1 and 174 multiply to 174 and add up 175, you know that the following is true:

x² + 175x + 174 = (x + 1 ) (x + 174)
