What two numbers multiply to 267 and add up to 268?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 267 and add up to 268?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 267

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 267 multiply to 267 and add up to 268:

1 × 267 = 267
1 + 267 = 268

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

x² + 268x + 267 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 267)

To summarize, since 1 and 267 multiply to 267 and add up 268, you know that the following is true:

x² + 268x + 267 = (x + 1 ) (x + 267)
