Here's the puzzle: 7 + 7 = 0. Can you solve it by moving only one matchstick? You have 25 seconds!
Let's break it down. Currently, the equation is 7 + 7 = 0. But its totally wrong, so we want to make it correct. Think properly about what we can do to make this equation correct.
Now, let's analyze the digits in the equation. We need to change one of the numbers to make the equation correct.
Consider where you could move a matchstick to change a number. Remember, you can only move one matchstick!
Time to move the matchstick! Find the right one to transform 7 + 7 = 0 into a correct equation.
With the matchstick moved, the equation changes. Witness the transformation from 7 + 7 = 0 to 7 + 1 = 8!
Now, the equation is correct: 7 + 1 = 8. Let's understand how the puzzle was solved with just one matchstick move.
Congratulations! You've successfully solved the matchstick puzzle by transforming 7 + 7 = 0 into 7 + 1 = 8 with just one matchstick move.
See how the matchstick moved from one digit to another, changing the equation and solving the puzzle.
