What two numbers multiply to 235 and add up to 236?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 235 and add up to 236?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 235

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 235 multiply to 235 and add up to 236:

1 × 235 = 235
1 + 235 = 236

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

x² + 236x + 235 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 235)

To summarize, since 1 and 235 multiply to 235 and add up 236, you know that the following is true:

x² + 236x + 235 = (x + 1 ) (x + 235)
