What two numbers multiply to 444 and add up to 445?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 444 and add up to 445?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 444

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 444 multiply to 444 and add up to 445:

1 × 444 = 444
1 + 444 = 445

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

x² + 445x + 444 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 444)

To summarize, since 1 and 444 multiply to 444 and add up 445, you know that the following is true:

x² + 445x + 444 = (x + 1 ) (x + 444)
