Also seen as
Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 864, here are decompositions:
- 5 + 859 = 864
- 7 + 857 = 864
- 11 + 853 = 864
- 37 + 827 = 864
- 41 + 823 = 864
- 43 + 821 = 864
- 53 + 811 = 864
- 67 + 797 = 864
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
