What two numbers multiply to 590 and add up to 591?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 590 and add up to 591?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 590

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 590 multiply to 590 and add up to 591:

1 × 590 = 590
1 + 590 = 591

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

x² + 591x + 590 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 590)

To summarize, since 1 and 590 multiply to 590 and add up 591, you know that the following is true:

x² + 591x + 590 = (x + 1 ) (x + 590)
