Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 1842, here are decompositions:
- 11 + 1831 = 1842
- 19 + 1823 = 1842
- 31 + 1811 = 1842
- 41 + 1801 = 1842
- 53 + 1789 = 1842
- 59 + 1783 = 1842
- 83 + 1759 = 1842
- 89 + 1753 = 1842
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
