Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 558, here are decompositions:
- 11 + 547 = 558
- 17 + 541 = 558
- 37 + 521 = 558
- 59 + 499 = 558
- 67 + 491 = 558
- 71 + 487 = 558
- 79 + 479 = 558
- 97 + 461 = 558
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
