What two numbers multiply to 585 and add up to 586?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 585 and add up to 586?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 585

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 585 multiply to 585 and add up to 586:

1 × 585 = 585
1 + 585 = 586

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

x² + 586x + 585 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 585)

To summarize, since 1 and 585 multiply to 585 and add up 586, you know that the following is true:

x² + 586x + 585 = (x + 1 ) (x + 585)
