What two numbers multiply to 761 and add up to 762?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 761 and add up to 762?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 761

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 761 multiply to 761 and add up to 762:

1 × 761 = 761
1 + 761 = 762

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

x² + 762x + 761 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 761)

To summarize, since 1 and 761 multiply to 761 and add up 762, you know that the following is true:

x² + 762x + 761 = (x + 1 ) (x + 761)
