Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 264, here are decompositions:
- 7 + 257 = 264
- 13 + 251 = 264
- 23 + 241 = 264
- 31 + 233 = 264
- 37 + 227 = 264
- 41 + 223 = 264
- 53 + 211 = 264
- 67 + 197 = 264
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
