What two numbers multiply to 661 and add up to 662?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 661 and add up to 662?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 661

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 661 multiply to 661 and add up to 662:

1 × 661 = 661
1 + 661 = 662

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

x² + 662x + 661 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 661)

To summarize, since 1 and 661 multiply to 661 and add up 662, you know that the following is true:

x² + 662x + 661 = (x + 1 ) (x + 661)
