What two numbers multiply to 425 and add up to 426?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 425 and add up to 426?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 425

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 425 multiply to 425 and add up to 426:

1 × 425 = 425
1 + 425 = 426

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

x² + 426x + 425 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 425)

To summarize, since 1 and 425 multiply to 425 and add up 426, you know that the following is true:

x² + 426x + 425 = (x + 1 ) (x + 425)
