What two numbers multiply to 861 and add up to 862?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 861 and add up to 862?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 861

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 861 multiply to 861 and add up to 862:

1 × 861 = 861
1 + 861 = 862

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

x² + 862x + 861 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 861)

To summarize, since 1 and 861 multiply to 861 and add up 862, you know that the following is true:

x² + 862x + 861 = (x + 1 ) (x + 861)
