What two numbers multiply to 283 and add up to 284?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 283 and add up to 284?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 283

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 283 multiply to 283 and add up to 284:

1 × 283 = 283
1 + 283 = 284

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

x² + 284x + 283 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 283)

To summarize, since 1 and 283 multiply to 283 and add up 284, you know that the following is true:

x² + 284x + 283 = (x + 1 ) (x + 283)
