What two numbers multiply to 860 and add up to 861?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 860 and add up to 861?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 860

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 860 multiply to 860 and add up to 861:

1 × 860 = 860
1 + 860 = 861

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

x² + 861x + 860 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 860)

To summarize, since 1 and 860 multiply to 860 and add up 861, you know that the following is true:

x² + 861x + 860 = (x + 1 ) (x + 860)
