Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 138, here are decompositions:
- 7 + 131 = 138
- 11 + 127 = 138
- 29 + 109 = 138
- 31 + 107 = 138
- 37 + 101 = 138
- 41 + 97 = 138
- 59 + 79 = 138
- 67 + 71 = 138
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
