What two numbers multiply to 440 and add up to 441?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 440 and add up to 441?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 440

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 440 multiply to 440 and add up to 441:

1 × 440 = 440
1 + 440 = 441

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

x² + 441x + 440 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 440)

To summarize, since 1 and 440 multiply to 440 and add up 441, you know that the following is true:

x² + 441x + 440 = (x + 1 ) (x + 440)
