Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 3968, here are decompositions:
- 37 + 3931 = 3968
- 61 + 3907 = 3968
- 79 + 3889 = 3968
- 199 + 3769 = 3968
- 229 + 3739 = 3968
- 241 + 3727 = 3968
- 271 + 3697 = 3968
- 277 + 3691 = 3968
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
