What two numbers multiply to 448 and add up to 449?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 448 and add up to 449?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 448

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 448 multiply to 448 and add up to 449:

1 × 448 = 448
1 + 448 = 449

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

x² + 449x + 448 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 448)

To summarize, since 1 and 448 multiply to 448 and add up 449, you know that the following is true:

x² + 449x + 448 = (x + 1 ) (x + 448)
