In this matchstick puzzle, relocating 1 matchstick from the left side to the right side will aid you in finding a solution.

Given the equation 8 + 3 – 4 = 0 represented with matchsticks,

Take a matchstick from the first digit 8 to transform it into the digit 9 and place it on the right side to maintain 8.

This adjustment yields:

9 + 3 – 4 = 8

Thus, the solution to the puzzle is:

Left-hand side (LHS) = 9 + 3 – 4 = 12 – 4 = 8

Right-hand side (RHS) = 8

Therefore, LHS equals RHS.

Answer 2:

Pick a stick from the first number 8 so it turns to a number 6 and put that in the number 4 so it becomes  9.

LHS = 6+3-9=9-9=0

RHS = 0

LHS = RHS

Answer 3:

Pick a stick from the third number 4 so that it transforms to form number 11.

LHS = 8+3-11=11-11=0

RHS = 0

LHS = RHS
