What two numbers multiply to 544 and add up to 545?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 544 and add up to 545?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 544

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 544 multiply to 544 and add up to 545:

1 × 544 = 544
1 + 544 = 545

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

x² + 545x + 544 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 544)

To summarize, since 1 and 544 multiply to 544 and add up 545, you know that the following is true:

x² + 545x + 544 = (x + 1 ) (x + 544)
