Take a side from 8 to make it a 6. Then use it as a minus and you get -1+6=5.

[@jamienelson3470]

Oh, yes, that works. You could also take the bottom off the 5 and use it to make a 9, so 1+8=9.

[@orionstrain]

@@jamienelson3470 Mostly the number 9 in matchstick puzzle should have a horizontal bar.

[@jz5jo]

remove the center stick of 8 to make it a 0, then put it 'diagonally' on the middle of the equal sign: therefore 1+0 ≠ 5

[@MrMicahapara]

Well that sounds like a good solution and modifying the equation altogether. Or maybe a simpler answer could be, Instead, just take the bottom stick on 5 and add it to the top right side and create 9. 1+8=9... I don't know I may be wrong sha!!

[@niralpatel2526]

Genious😊

[@AB-C1]

Use the bottom stick on the 5 move it up to top right to make a 9 (1+8=9) 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@rianmacdonald9454]

But the 9 isn't right then. Good idea - but the digits are old fashioned style calculator format, hence the ''tails'' on the 6's and 9's. The answer is -1 + 6 = 5. Although I didn't get puzzle 2 and 5

[@ethanboucher-tv2gt]

My sister also suggested this method, but I told her the 9 is wrong.

[@keopicat1966]

wrong the 9 must be done with 6 sticks @williambunter3311 just under your comment @williambunter3311 has the good answer -1+6=5.

[@gheffz]

Even though technically the 9 isn't a 'calculator' 9 I'd still pay this answer, well done!

[@GregBreden]

03:11 Fine, except the version of this shown in the thumbnail doesn't work because the coin is too big and in the wrong place.

Yup. Dishonest advertising.

Take bottom stick of 5 and connect it with the top stick of 5 vertically downwards so it touches other corner!!!😊

[@MindYourOpinion]

👍

[@Frie_Jemi]

Something else shows a puzzle is not the same as the one that scribed in the video. In the video they widen the angle of the peak of the roof, to 90 degrees so that the coin is within the new square . On the image on the thumbnail you cannot widen the roof to include the coin because the coin is too large and in the wrong place. It's a clickbait thumbnail displaying a puzzle which cannot be solved as shown.

[@rontavers9915]

thumb down for that

[@BenDRobinson]

The still image for #5 that is the preview image of the video is frustratingly wrong - the coin is placed such that the solution doesn't quite work. I spent quite a while staring at it and convincing myself there was no solution, only to see that in the video the coin is in a different spot.

[@AuliaAF]

Yeah. Poor clickbait. I'll just block this channel right after this video.

Take the bottom stick of the five and move it vertically to form a square at the top =9

I don't think it is possible to do with the title puzzle. Ten minutes of my life I will never get back.

[@63shakeandbake]

Take the bottom match stick of the 5 and box the top of the 5 with it to make the 5 a 9.

[@nelsonx5326]

1+8=9, move a section of 5.

[@istvanmuresan4267]

Bingo

[@ErmandIII]

This is not possible, you need to put one stick on the 5 to make a 9, but if you keep all intact, where would you take this stick from? If the statement was to add a stick, not to move one, it would be possible.

[@kennethfielder2371]

On the last one, move the bottom stick to have it read 9 instead of 5. 1 + 8 = 5 (1 + 8 = 9), since the 9 does not need a rocker like the 5 does. Think of the letter p reverse it you have 9

[@p.jayajothi3194]

For those a wee bit still confused you take only one match stuck of the number giving it half the height of the other numbers

[@endurofan9854]

but in these pattern of number formation number 9 always have that racker 🤷‍♂️

[@hansfritzmiller1846]

Take the vertical match from the plus sign and lay it diagonally across the equal sign so that the equation reads one minus eight does not equal five.

[@patriciabennett802]

😁👏👏👏

[@Puleczech]

Take the vertical match in "+" and place it over "=" to make the not equal sign "≠"

Move one stick to make the equation -1+6=5

[@dougreilly2772]

you can change the 5 to a 9 by moving one match

[@williambunter3311]

dogreilly; Sorry, that doesn't work, bcause you will have a side missing! The 9 requires a horizontal foundation in these puzzles. I give the correct solution above i.e. -1+6=5

[@mabelalfonso9783]

Take the bottom stick of the 5 and put it on top to complete the square and you have a 9.

[@amart2k1]

😂 Creative solution!

[@tomasrikona4021]

Make a box using the base already there. Use the three sticks joining it as the remaining sides. 3 pieces 3 movements.

[@jsusna1972]

I've got to pay more attention to the titles. On the very first one, I mistakenly thought I was supposed to move just 1 stick. Wasted quite a few minutes on that one!

[@DawnDavidson]

Me too! Classic ADHD 😂

[@antoniog9814]

Take the vertical segment from the + sign and place it over the = sign so it reads one minus 8 does not equal 5.

[@noelwalterso2]

But that's an inequality rather than an equation.

[@blenquing4951]

Make 5 to 9 to make the equation correct. 1 + 8 = 9

1. can be solved with moving only one match move one of the outer horizontal matches and place them on the bottom of the figure to get two squares 2. can be solved with moving only two matches move two of the outer horizontal matches and place them on the top and the bottom of the figure to get three squares 5. can be solved by forming a square round the coin, one match not used There's no remark you should use all the matches or sticks

[@malcolmrickarby2313]

Or a triangle. Two matches not used.😊

[@joshuagregory4408]

You move 1 match from the 1 and place it at the top right of the 5 which makes 9 so it’s 1+8=9

1 - 8 ≠ 5

[@AutitsicDysexlia]

@3:20 #5 is dumb and it cheats. Can get the coin inside by only moving two sticks with zero overlap and retain the same original shape orientation.

[@chrisallen2005]

I guess we have to assume for at least one of these that the depth can be greater than one match stick.

[@4faxache935]

Fcking con. I was trying to do it with the match still being attached at one end.

[@C.O.G.]

@chrisallen2005 nope. I've seen and solved all of these stick puzzles in my younger days. They all have one single matchstick per side. No layers. It never pays to assume things. A lot of errors made that way, in life.

Easy, just move one match stick, slide the coin in, and move the match stick back where it was.

[@puzby5482]

#1 can be done by moving one stick. #2 can be done by moving two sticks and the fifth one is impossible as stated, and the solution shown failed. The problem, as stated, was to get the sticks inside the coin. That is not possible. The solution provided got the coin inside the sticks, not the sticks inside the coin.

[@truetexan7755]

Just move one match away from the box. Slide the coin into the open box. Move the match back in place to close the box. Priblem solved.

[@mrs.Mukthar]

Move the stick at the bottom of 5 and put it up in the same number to make a 9 😊

[@julianarivera8204]

Make the 8 into a 6 and make the 1 a -1, so it will be -1+6=5

#6: Move the bottom of the 5 to the open side on the right to close it off, making it 9.

[@glenngalvez-mi2nq]

Take one stick at the bottom of 5 and place it on upper right of the figure to make it a total of 9.

[@alvexok5523]

That's what I've said. You only need one vertical line hanging from the bottom right corner of a square to make a 9, it doesn't have to have a bottom horizontal line too.

[@user-zc5wz5vd6o]

I didn't know a stick was allowed to jump over the coin.

[@milesedgeworth3667]

Move a stick ≠ slide a stick, 3 dimentional movement is allowed, and was used for some of the other ones(the 7 squares for example)

[@alvexok5523]

Yeah. And so can taking the bottom horizontal line of the 5 and placing it vertically into the top right space. A 9 just needs one vertical line hanging from the bottom right corner of a square, it doesn't have to have a horizontal bottom line too.

[@louf7178]

"Sticks". Greater than one is plural, and plural objects get an "s" at the end.

[@themachine5957]

For No. 2, you could do it by moving just two sticks. Just move the bottom two sticks to the top and the right hand side to form three squares in an L shape (with a couple of extra sticks sticking out on the left hand side). For No. 6, you probably intended for us to make it say -1 + 6 = 5, but you could also do it by moving the bottom stick of the 5 up to the top right of it to make it into a 9, so that it reads 1 + 8 = 9

[@robertveith6383]

One of the rules for the matchstick shape conversions is that the resultant shape must have no hanging matchsticks (no unattached matchsticks).

[@The_Cali_Dude_88]

That's what I saw as well

[@C.O.G.]

@themachine5957, nope. These puzzles were created for school children. I had a puzzle book with this one in it when I was a kid. The right answer is 1+8=9.

[@paulromsky9527]

Move the inner segment of the 8 diagonally over the equal sign: 1 + 0 /= (not equal to) 5. Technically, that equation is correct, it is an in-equation but a type of equation nonetheless.

[@DawnDavidson]

I came up with a solution similar to yours. Move one of the arms of the equals sign so that it becomes a greater than sign instead. (It’ll be slightly askew, but still able to be interpreted correctly). The wide end is facing toward the two numbers and the point is facing toward the 5. Therefore it reads 1 + 8 > 5, which is true.

[@milesedgeworth3667]

This one has 3 answers 1:remove bottom of 5 and place it in top right to make 9:1+8=9 2:take top rightbof 8 (turning it into 6) and use it as a negative sign next to the one:-1+6=5 3:take the top right(6) or Center stick(0) of 8 and use it to turn the equal sign to not equal: 1+6≠5 / 1+0≠5
