What two numbers multiply to 982 and add up to 983?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 982 and add up to 983?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 982

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 982 multiply to 982 and add up to 983:

1 × 982 = 982
1 + 982 = 983

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

x² + 983x + 982 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 982)

To summarize, since 1 and 982 multiply to 982 and add up 983, you know that the following is true:

x² + 983x + 982 = (x + 1 ) (x + 982)
