Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 3978, here are decompositions:

  • 11 + 3967 = 3978
  • 31 + 3947 = 3978
  • 47 + 3931 = 3978
  • 59 + 3919 = 3978
  • 61 + 3917 = 3978
  • 67 + 3911 = 3978
  • 71 + 3907 = 3978
  • 89 + 3889 = 3978

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
