What two numbers multiply to 446 and add up to 447?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 446 and add up to 447?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 446

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 446 multiply to 446 and add up to 447:

1 × 446 = 446
1 + 446 = 447

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

x² + 447x + 446 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 446)

To summarize, since 1 and 446 multiply to 446 and add up 447, you know that the following is true:

x² + 447x + 446 = (x + 1 ) (x + 446)
