Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 1944, here are decompositions:
- 11 + 1933 = 1944
- 13 + 1931 = 1944
- 31 + 1913 = 1944
- 37 + 1907 = 1944
- 43 + 1901 = 1944
- 67 + 1877 = 1944
- 71 + 1873 = 1944
- 73 + 1871 = 1944
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
