Abstract

The Goldbach Conjecture remains one of the several unsolved mathematical problems today, along with the Twin Prime Conjecture. It is said to be one of the simplest mathematical problems to state yet the most difficult to prove. In this paper, the author explores a few even numbers about the problem, and, using them as his sample size, juxtaposes his ideas with those of others through literature review. The author explores a solution to the Goldbach conjecture which was put forward about 275 years ago, by a German mathematician, Christian Goldbach, who was a contemporary of the genius German mathematician, Leonhard Euler. Euler in a letter to Goldbach, had confessed at the time that unfortunately, he (Euler) could not prove Goldbach’s mathematical poser. Through fundamental analysis and critical thinking, this author attempts to share his thoughts on how to resolve this long-standing mathematical debacle. The methodology used is basic, experimental, and exploratory, with the use of inferences through recognition of number patterns. We hope that this paper will make a small contribution to the discourse on Goldbach’s conjecture, whose solution has eluded mathematicians for about 275 years.
