What two numbers multiply to 741 and add up to 742?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 741 and add up to 742?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 741

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 741 multiply to 741 and add up to 742:

1 × 741 = 741
1 + 741 = 742

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

x² + 742x + 741 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 741)

To summarize, since 1 and 741 multiply to 741 and add up 742, you know that the following is true:

x² + 742x + 741 = (x + 1 ) (x + 741)
