Question

What multiplies to -255, but adds to 0? I've been trying to figure this out for a while, and can't figure it out.

Answer 1

zero.....not really sure

Answer 2

can you rewrite the ques?

Answer 3

i assume your factoring? lol

well if the two numbers add to 0...they have to be the same number right?

so what is 255 / 2?

not a whole number is it? so there is no solution

this is if it's factoring of course

Answer 4

\[
16\times -16 = -256
\]So it's pretty close to \(16\)....
\[
x\times x = x^2 = -255\\
x+x = 2x = 0
\]

Answer 5

Or are you asking for a pair of numbers?
