Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 878, here are decompositions:
- 19 + 859 = 878
- 67 + 811 = 878
- 109 + 769 = 878
- 127 + 751 = 878
- 139 + 739 = 878
- 151 + 727 = 878
- 271 + 607 = 878
- 277 + 601 = 878
Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
