Yes, Goldbach's conjecture states that - Every even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two primes.
Goldbach’s conjecture is one of the oldest and best-known unsolved problems in number theory of mathematics.
A prime is a whole number which is only divisible by 1 and itself.
Examples:
- 4 = 2 + 2 and 2 is a prime, so the answer to the question is "yes" for the number 4.
- 6 = 3 + 3 and 3 is prime, so it's "yes" for 6 also.
- 8 = 3 + 5, 5 is a prime too, so it's another "yes".
- 13 = (3 + 5 + 5) or (3 + 3 + 7)
- 15 = (3 + 5 + 7)
