What two numbers multiply to 442 and add up to 443?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 442 and add up to 443?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 442

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 442 multiply to 442 and add up to 443:

1 × 442 = 442
1 + 442 = 443

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

x² + 443x + 442 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 442)

To summarize, since 1 and 442 multiply to 442 and add up 443, you know that the following is true:

x² + 443x + 442 = (x + 1 ) (x + 442)
