What two numbers multiply to 747 and add up to 748?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 747 and add up to 748?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 747

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 747 multiply to 747 and add up to 748:

1 × 747 = 747
1 + 747 = 748

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

x² + 748x + 747 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 747)

To summarize, since 1 and 747 multiply to 747 and add up 748, you know that the following is true:

x² + 748x + 747 = (x + 1 ) (x + 747)
