matches - Back to the Matchsticks Version 3


We start with


1=850-4-3 as the cotton swab equation, incorrect of course.



By moving 3 swabs or less create a correct equation. It is a standard digital display. You may use numbers, roman numerals or letters in standard digital display. If you use roman numerals, 1 willl have 2 swabs, C will have 4, D will have 6, L will have 3, V and X will have 4, M will have 6. No inequalities or > or <. No significant space creation to insert swabs. Rearranging is a move. No Removing or adding swabs. Use any math functions. Minus and Divide use 1 swab. Plus and multiply and equal to use 2 swabs. enter image description here



Answer



With only one swab moved:



1=8e0-4-3 In standard scientific notation: 1=8e0-4-3



And one funny with 3 swabs moved:



I don't think anything in the question prevents me to view the picture rotated, so: 3 swabs and view from above Viewed from above: 59-058=1
