Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 1840, here are decompositions:
- 17 + 1823 = 1840
- 29 + 1811 = 1840
- 53 + 1787 = 1840
- 107 + 1733 = 1840
- 131 + 1709 = 1840
- 173 + 1667 = 1840
- 227 + 1613 = 1840
- 233 + 1607 = 1840
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
