What two numbers multiply to 387 and add up to 388?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 387 and add up to 388?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 387

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 387 multiply to 387 and add up to 388:

1 × 387 = 387
1 + 387 = 388

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

x² + 388x + 387 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 387)

To summarize, since 1 and 387 multiply to 387 and add up 388, you know that the following is true:

x² + 388x + 387 = (x + 1 ) (x + 387)
