What two numbers multiply to 890 and add up to 891?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 890 and add up to 891?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 890

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 890 multiply to 890 and add up to 891:

1 × 890 = 890
1 + 890 = 891

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

x² + 891x + 890 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 890)

To summarize, since 1 and 890 multiply to 890 and add up 891, you know that the following is true:

x² + 891x + 890 = (x + 1 ) (x + 890)
