Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 3242, here are decompositions:
- 13 + 3229 = 3242
- 61 + 3181 = 3242
- 73 + 3169 = 3242
- 79 + 3163 = 3242
- 163 + 3079 = 3242
- 181 + 3061 = 3242
- 193 + 3049 = 3242
- 223 + 3019 = 3242
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
