2 is the only even Prime number, all other prime numbers are odd

Adding 3 odd number gives an odd number

So 2 is one of the 3 prime number, then the problem is equal to:

what 2 odd prime numbers add up to 28?

Odd Prime numbers less than 28 are: 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23

The only solutions (for 28)are: 5+23, 11+17

So the solutions (for 30) are: 2+5+23, 2+11+17

Well, honey, the only way you're getting three prime numbers to add up to 30 is if you have a time machine and can go back to before the Big Bang. Prime numbers are only divisible by 1 and themselves, so the closest you can get to 30 is 11 + 13 + 2, but that only adds up to 26. So, unless you've got some magical math powers up your sleeve, you're out of luck on this one.

The prime numbers that add up to 30 are 7, 11, and 13. These numbers are prime because they are only divisible by 1 and themselves. When you add 7, 11, and 13 together, you get 30.
