Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 520, here are decompositions:
- 11 + 509 = 520
- 17 + 503 = 520
- 29 + 491 = 520
- 41 + 479 = 520
- 53 + 467 = 520
- 59 + 461 = 520
- 71 + 449 = 520
- 89 + 431 = 520
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
