What two numbers multiply to 578 and add up to 579?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 578 and add up to 579?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 578

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 578 multiply to 578 and add up to 579:

1 × 578 = 578
1 + 578 = 579

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

x² + 579x + 578 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 578)

To summarize, since 1 and 578 multiply to 578 and add up 579, you know that the following is true:

x² + 579x + 578 = (x + 1 ) (x + 578)
