What two numbers multiply to 266 and add up to 267?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 266 and add up to 267?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 266

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 266 multiply to 266 and add up to 267:

1 × 266 = 266
1 + 266 = 267

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

x² + 267x + 266 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 266)

To summarize, since 1 and 266 multiply to 266 and add up 267, you know that the following is true:

x² + 267x + 266 = (x + 1 ) (x + 266)
