What two numbers multiply to 232 and add up to 233?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 232 and add up to 233?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 232

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 232 multiply to 232 and add up to 233:

1 × 232 = 232
1 + 232 = 233

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

x² + 233x + 232 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 232)

To summarize, since 1 and 232 multiply to 232 and add up 233, you know that the following is true:

x² + 233x + 232 = (x + 1 ) (x + 232)
