Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 3172, here are decompositions:
- 3 + 3169 = 3172
- 5 + 3167 = 3172
- 53 + 3119 = 3172
- 83 + 3089 = 3172
- 89 + 3083 = 3172
- 131 + 3041 = 3172
- 149 + 3023 = 3172
- 173 + 2999 = 3172
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
