What two numbers multiply to 852 and add up to 853?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 852 and add up to 853?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 852

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 852 multiply to 852 and add up to 853:

1 × 852 = 852
1 + 852 = 853

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

x² + 853x + 852 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 852)

To summarize, since 1 and 852 multiply to 852 and add up 853, you know that the following is true:

x² + 853x + 852 = (x + 1 ) (x + 852)
