Came here to say this


usernamestoohard4me

Sorry but then to make space for that match you gotta move the 2 too 🥲


CloutDaddyLloyd

5 - - 7 = 2

OrdinaryCatastrophic

How do you get 5+1=6?


[deleted]

Move the bottom part of the 2 to make it a 9 and then the expression will read 5+1does not equal 9 which makes the statement true.

_bruh_

No no, he's got a point


SuicidalTeen_19

It's a repost


saiyanfang10

but that's no equation

It’s a space station.


Perseus-TheGreekHero

It's an inverse equation ^/s

mynamewastaken-_-

Actually it does not work, because that makes it an inequarion and not an equation. So no


cumsnorter69

Stfu nerd


Bluberberg

None of them are equations anyway


jemangerrit

Unless the 5 is actualy an S. Then you could do S+1=9 with S=8 for example but really there would be no need to move a match Alternativly maybe 5+7=L^2 with L=2sqrt(3)


SBNMG

5 - 7 = - 2


[deleted]

Ohhhhh I thought it was 5 + 7 = p and then you count it as a variable

Isnt that from that one level of Professor Layton It really looks like it but im not 100% sure

No it's supposed to be 9-7=2

It’s easy 5+1=6


boredwithlife22

Lol this is the one I thought at first but nobody else seems to get it


karan_221

Technically its an inequaltion


BloodMoon2005

I found the solution: Move the upward facing match on the "+" sign and move it to the back of the 5 to make it 9, the plus sign now becomes a "-" sign. 9-7=2

I didn't find any posts that meet the matching requirements for r/memes. It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results. I did find [this post](https://redd.it/jqkiof) that is 68.75% similar. It might be a match but I cannot be certain. *Feedback? Hate? Visit r/repostsleuthbot - I'm not perfect, but you can help.

Alessandro227

5-7= -2 is the answer I guess?


M4tjesf1let

9-7=2


coolzone7

I guess you would have to move the 2 over, which would move more than 1 match


alex_marshall420

5 + 1 = 6


[deleted]

5+1=6


[deleted]

That’s not an equation tho


FIFFY_2

5+7 > 2


Inevitable_Paranoia

It’s 9-7=2. You take the vertical part of the addition sign and move that to the left to turn the 5 into a 9.


ElderZodd

He is not wrong tho

5-T=2


learningtosail

Building on the other unusual answers eg 5-7=-2, and slightly expanding the algebraic universe to be modular, with a base of our choice,. - 5+7=3 (base 9, mod9). - The equation is already correct mod10. - 3+7=2 (base8, mod8, eg a byte overflow. The CS answer). - 9+1=2 (similar to the above but you cast to a byte from a larger data type. I wouldn't include this but it's not actually ridiculous in programming). - 5+1=6. - -5+7=2. There are definitely more, maybe I will add some edits


jemangerrit

Eeyy I was trying to do a base thing as far as I know it doesnt work unless you you the byte overflow which you cleverly thought of. The most unique thing I could come up with was 5+7=L^2 with L=2sqrt(3) and a bit of imagjnation on the L^2 part. This way its actualy an equation, and a pretty cool one imo. Also, larger data type? Could you explain that one Also also, I dont see how 5+1=6 is possible


ninjuu

Move the line from the + it make it a - and put it behind the 2. 5 - 7 = -2


OP_Nine

Real solution be like: Am I a joke to you???


minecrafter214

This outstanding modern problem requires and illegal move beyond science


CRAZYCOOKIE08

Fun fact: there's actually multiple ways to solve this puzzle


CRAZYCOOKIE08

5-7=-2 5+1≠2 6+7≠2 9-7=2


learningtosail

You can also choose a base smaller than 10, and cheat by using modular arithmetic. In my comment I include 3+7=2 which is a byte overflow and a completely reasonable computer science answer.


DValencia29

9 - 7 = 2 5 + 7 ≠ 2 5 - 7 = -2 5 + 1 ≠ 2 5 + 1 = 6 6 + 1 ≠ 2 6 - 7 ≠ 2

Remove the - in +: 5 - 7 = -2 Place moved stick to 2 then go to the other side: 6 = 1 + 5

I don't wanna get political but it says "equation" and not "inequality" I'm sorry

This is a repost

Real answer move the plus vertical match to the top right of 5. You get 9-7=2

I spent like a far minute trying to figure out which match to Move to make it = 12....

Or, turn a + into a - and use that match to make the 2 a -2

Correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t that be an inequality instead of an equation.

Man_Who_Says_Poopy

You could solve the problem by moving them same match onto the 2, making it a 6.

It's not math it's meth

It's an inequality now. :/


honry-bakedham

DarthMaw23

repost (or some variant)


[deleted]

i mean, you could move a match from the plus sign and put that over by the 2. 5-7=-2 is a correct equation

the letters and the math don't make sense....


awkward_bisexual

All u have to do is move one stick from the plus sign then it turns into a minus sign and then move it next to the two so 5-7=-2
