Question & Solution: Level 263
The equation shown is 5 + 5 + 5 = 550. Your goal is to make this equation true by moving only one matchstick.
How to fix the equation:
This is a very tricky matchstick puzzle that requires visual transformation:
- Identify the first addition sign: + (The vertical stick and the horizontal stick).
- Drag the vertical matchstick from the first addition sign (+).
- Place this stick onto the second number '5'. You need to position it carefully to visually turn the '5' into a '4' within the number sequence, creating the new number: 545.
The original setup 5 + 5 + 5 = 550 now reads 545 + 5 = 550, which is mathematically correct!

PRO TIP
You need to drastically increase the value of the numbers on the left side. Focus on changing the '5+' into a much larger number.
