What two numbers multiply to 200 and add up to 201?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 200 and add up to 201?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 200

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 200 multiply to 200 and add up to 201:

1 × 200 = 200
1 + 200 = 201

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

x² + 201x + 200 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 200)

To summarize, since 1 and 200 multiply to 200 and add up 201, you know that the following is true:

x² + 201x + 200 = (x + 1 ) (x + 200)
