Question

What multiplies to -26 and adds to -25

Answer 1

Answer:

1 and -26

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the factors of 26 (because the two numbers have to multiply to -26). These are: 1 and 26, 2 and 13.

2 and 13 cannot be added or subtracted from one another to get -25, but 1 and 26 can, or rather 1 and -26.
