What two numbers multiply to 917 and add up to 918?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 917 and add up to 918?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 917

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 917 multiply to 917 and add up to 918:

1 × 917 = 917
1 + 917 = 918

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

x² + 918x + 917 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 917)

To summarize, since 1 and 917 multiply to 917 and add up 918, you know that the following is true:

x² + 918x + 917 = (x + 1 ) (x + 917)
