Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 1506, here are decompositions:
- 7 + 1499 = 1506
- 13 + 1493 = 1506
- 17 + 1489 = 1506
- 19 + 1487 = 1506
- 23 + 1483 = 1506
- 47 + 1459 = 1506
- 53 + 1453 = 1506
- 59 + 1447 = 1506
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
