Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 2020, here are decompositions:
- 3 + 2017 = 2020
- 17 + 2003 = 2020
- 23 + 1997 = 2020
- 41 + 1979 = 2020
- 47 + 1973 = 2020
- 71 + 1949 = 2020
- 89 + 1931 = 2020
- 107 + 1913 = 2020
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
