Fun trick question!

[Noodleleg]

If you can solve this, I'll give you a high five and yes, I know the answer...


You have toothpicks that have been lain out on a table. It shows:

Vll + l = ll

This does not equal. How can you move one toothpick and make it equal? And no, you can't do inequalities =p

[Bunnyshoota]

VII - I = VI

Take the vertical toothpick out of + sign and make V on other side.

[Buster]

Take the v apart so it'll b III+I=II move the part ov the v u took in front of the III so it'll be -III+I=II true statement

[Noodleleg]

I said move one toothpick >.>

[Bunnyshoota]

Take the v apart so it'll b III+I=II move the part ov the v u took in front of the III so it'll be -III+I=II true statement

-3 + 1 is -2 not 2

[Noodleleg]

VII - I = VI

Take the vertical toothpick out of + sign and make V on other side.

This isn't the answer, sorry. You did 2 moves on is attempt =p try again :-D

[Buster]

-3 + 1 is -2 not 2

O well... hmm...

Oh my bad, I though you meant move one toothpick to other side or something..............

[Rare]

Move one of the v toothpicks so it shows

III + I = IV

[Noodleleg]

Move one of the v toothpicks so it shows

III + I = IV

V is made up of 2 toothpicks, sorry. Try again :-D

[Bunnyshoota]

I got it

VII - V = II

Shift the vertical toothpick in + a little to the right to make a V

[Rare]

V is made up of 2 toothpicks, sorry. Try again :-D

Yeah. I'm moving one of the toothpicks to another I to make a V

xii - i = 11

Break all the tooth picks so they you get something like this: ----=----

haha

[Fao]

Of its a trick question it's usually, it's not possible so that's my guess!!

[Windwaiker]

Since the V is made of two toothpicks, you take ONE of them and move it on the other side, connecting it with the II. It should be a result like this:

/|| + | = ||/

So, the first number kinda looks like the third roman numeral, and the last number looks like the fourth roman numeral :P

move the tooth pick that keeps the plus sign from being a minus. take that tooth pick and place it diagnolly across the equals sign to make it a not equal to sign. thus you have VII - I (is not equal to) II.

EDIT: i didnt cheat either. im assuming this is from somewhere online.

[Noodleleg]

Er... None if you are close...sorry. Think about more operations in math. (Warning) May include something more than addition and subtraction. Good luck!

Didn't I say no inequalities
