What two numbers multiply to 748 and add up to 749?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 748 and add up to 749?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 748

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 748 multiply to 748 and add up to 749:

1 × 748 = 748
1 + 748 = 749

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

x² + 749x + 748 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 748)

To summarize, since 1 and 748 multiply to 748 and add up 749, you know that the following is true:

x² + 749x + 748 = (x + 1 ) (x + 748)
