What two numbers multiply to 244 and add up to 245?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 244 and add up to 245?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 244

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 244 multiply to 244 and add up to 245:

1 × 244 = 244
1 + 244 = 245

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

x² + 245x + 244 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 244)

To summarize, since 1 and 244 multiply to 244 and add up 245, you know that the following is true:

x² + 245x + 244 = (x + 1 ) (x + 244)
