What two numbers multiply to 268 and add up to 269?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 268 and add up to 269?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 268

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 268 multiply to 268 and add up to 269:

1 × 268 = 268
1 + 268 = 269

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

x² + 269x + 268 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 268)

To summarize, since 1 and 268 multiply to 268 and add up 269, you know that the following is true:

x² + 269x + 268 = (x + 1 ) (x + 268)
