Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 406, here are decompositions:

  • 5 + 401 = 406
  • 17 + 389 = 406
  • 23 + 383 = 406
  • 47 + 359 = 406
  • 53 + 353 = 406
  • 59 + 347 = 406
  • 89 + 317 = 406
  • 113 + 293 = 406

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
