Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 6978, here are decompositions:

  • 7 + 6971 = 6978
  • 11 + 6967 = 6978
  • 17 + 6961 = 6978
  • 19 + 6959 = 6978
  • 29 + 6949 = 6978
  • 31 + 6947 = 6978
  • 61 + 6917 = 6978
  • 67 + 6911 = 6978

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
