Do you consider yourself a good person? logical reasoning? So, test your skill through this matchstick challenge. In this case, it is necessary to reorganize the equation present in the image, so that the result is coherent. But to do so, you'll need to move two of the matchsticks that make up the numbers.

understand the challenge
In the image above you can find an equation that anyone can solve, however, the result is wrong, since 0 + 0 does not equal 1. Also, note that the numbers in the image are made with matchstick drawings, which means that you can rearrange the position of the matchsticks and thus form new numbers.
This, then, is precisely today's logical reasoning challenge: it is necessary to move the matchsticks to form new numbers in another equation whose result is correct. However, it is necessary to know that there is a movement limit, as only two sticks must be moved.
Furthermore, the other matchsticks must be in the same place, so there is only one solution to this challenge. So pay close attention and move the matchsticks precisely to get the riddle right.
What is the challenge solution?
Now that you've understood how the challenge is organized, you'll have to act: move the two sticks and form different numbers. But if you've already tried and failed to solve it, don't worry, because we'll explain the solution and try new challenges to exercise your mind.
In this case, you will need to move the toothpick that is vertically on the left end of the number zero, and use it to close a number nine. Immediately after, move the matchstick that is on the plus sign and place it in the middle of the other zero, in order to form an eight.
Notice that you now have a minus sign and two new numbers: a nine and an eight. Therefore, just carry out the subtraction operation and the result is already given from the previous equation: one. Understand better through the image below!
