What two numbers multiply to 274 and add up to 275?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 274 and add up to 275?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 274

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 274 multiply to 274 and add up to 275:

1 × 274 = 274
1 + 274 = 275

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

x² + 275x + 274 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 274)

To summarize, since 1 and 274 multiply to 274 and add up 275, you know that the following is true:

x² + 275x + 274 = (x + 1 ) (x + 274)
