What two numbers multiply to 851 and add up to 852?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 851 and add up to 852?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 851

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 851 multiply to 851 and add up to 852:

1 × 851 = 851
1 + 851 = 852

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

x² + 852x + 851 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 851)

To summarize, since 1 and 851 multiply to 851 and add up 852, you know that the following is true:

x² + 852x + 851 = (x + 1 ) (x + 851)
