What two numbers multiply to 447 and add up to 448?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 447 and add up to 448?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 447

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 447 multiply to 447 and add up to 448:

1 × 447 = 447
1 + 447 = 448

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

x² + 448x + 447 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 447)

To summarize, since 1 and 447 multiply to 447 and add up 448, you know that the following is true:

x² + 448x + 447 = (x + 1 ) (x + 447)
