What two numbers multiply to 359 and add up to 360?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 359 and add up to 360?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 359

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 359 multiply to 359 and add up to 360:

1 × 359 = 359
1 + 359 = 360

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

x² + 360x + 359 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 359)

To summarize, since 1 and 359 multiply to 359 and add up 360, you know that the following is true:

x² + 360x + 359 = (x + 1 ) (x + 359)
