What two numbers multiply to 817 and add up to 818?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 817 and add up to 818?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 817

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 817 multiply to 817 and add up to 818:

1 × 817 = 817
1 + 817 = 818

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

x² + 818x + 817 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 817)

To summarize, since 1 and 817 multiply to 817 and add up 818, you know that the following is true:

x² + 818x + 817 = (x + 1 ) (x + 817)
