What two numbers multiply to 784 and add up to 785?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 784 and add up to 785?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 784

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 784 multiply to 784 and add up to 785:

1 × 784 = 784
1 + 784 = 785

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

x² + 785x + 784 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 784)

To summarize, since 1 and 784 multiply to 784 and add up 785, you know that the following is true:

x² + 785x + 784 = (x + 1 ) (x + 784)
