What two numbers multiply to 522 and add up to 523?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 522 and add up to 523?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 522

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 522 multiply to 522 and add up to 523:

1 × 522 = 522
1 + 522 = 523

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

x² + 523x + 522 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 522)

To summarize, since 1 and 522 multiply to 522 and add up 523, you know that the following is true:

x² + 523x + 522 = (x + 1 ) (x + 522)
