Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 420, here are decompositions:

11 + 409 = 420
19 + 401 = 420
23 + 397 = 420
31 + 389 = 420
37 + 383 = 420
41 + 379 = 420
47 + 373 = 420
53 + 367 = 420

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
