Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 240, here are decompositions:

7 + 233 = 240
11 + 229 = 240
13 + 227 = 240
17 + 223 = 240
29 + 211 = 240
41 + 199 = 240
43 + 197 = 240
47 + 193 = 240

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
