What two numbers multiply to 272 and add up to 273?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 272 and add up to 273?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 272

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 272 multiply to 272 and add up to 273:

1 × 272 = 272
1 + 272 = 273

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

x² + 273x + 272 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 272)

To summarize, since 1 and 272 multiply to 272 and add up 273, you know that the following is true:

x² + 273x + 272 = (x + 1 ) (x + 272)
