Also seen as
Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 258, here are decompositions:
- 7 + 251 = 258
- 17 + 241 = 258
- 19 + 239 = 258
- 29 + 229 = 258
- 31 + 227 = 258
- 47 + 211 = 258
- 59 + 199 = 258
- 61 + 197 = 258
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
