What two numbers multiply to 961 and add up to 962?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 961 and add up to 962?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 961

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 961 multiply to 961 and add up to 962:

1 × 961 = 961
1 + 961 = 962

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

x² + 962x + 961 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 961)

To summarize, since 1 and 961 multiply to 961 and add up 962, you know that the following is true:

x² + 962x + 961 = (x + 1 ) (x + 961)
