What two numbers multiply to 29 and add up to 30?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 29 and add up to 30?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 29

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 29 multiply to 29 and add up to 30:

1 × 29 = 29
1 + 29 = 30

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

x² + 30x + 29 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 29)

To summarize, since 1 and 29 multiply to 29 and add up 30, you know that the following is true:

x² + 30x + 29 = (x + 1 ) (x + 29)
