What two numbers multiply to 913 and add up to -914?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 913 and add up to -914?"

The answer to your question is:

-913 and -1

Below we illustrate and prove that -913 and -1 multiply to 913 and add up to -914:

-913 × -1 = 913
-913 + -1 = -914

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

x² - 914x + 913 = 0

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

(x - 913 ) (x - 1)

To summarize, since -913 and -1 multiply to 913 and add up -914, you know that the following is true:

x² - 914x + 913 = (x - 913 ) (x - 1)
