What two numbers multiply to 342 and add up to 343?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 342 and add up to 343?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 342

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 342 multiply to 342 and add up to 343:

1 × 342 = 342
1 + 342 = 343

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

x² + 343x + 342 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 342)

To summarize, since 1 and 342 multiply to 342 and add up 343, you know that the following is true:

x² + 343x + 342 = (x + 1 ) (x + 342)
