Goldbach’s Conjecture:
In 1742 German Mathematician Goldbach proposed a conjecture as
“Even numbers greater than 2 can be written as sum of two primes”
e.g. 4 = 2 + 2; 6 = 3 + 3; 8 = 3 + 5; 10 = 3 + 7; 12 = 5 + 7; 14 = 7 + 7; 14 = 3 + 11; 16 = 3 + 13; 16 = 5 + 11; 18 = 7 + 11; 18 = 5 + 13; 20 = 3 + 17; 20 = 7 + 13; 22 = 11 + 11; 22 = 5 + 17
and so on for all even numbers greater than 2 till 4 X 1014
Till this date no one was able to prove it false by giving a counterexample.
Thanks for noting. Let me know your questions in the comments.
