Add the numbers and this is wrong. You must arrange the matchsticks to rectify the mathematical equation.

Ten seconds and one requirement remain. Condition is: Movement is limited to one matchstick.

Highly intelligent and detail-oriented people will solve this moderately difficult puzzle faster.

[{"selector":"#anim-9520af46-4cf8-4ed9-8b0d-23fd78bcbee2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e485e4c3-b386-4aea-8968-1f28edfefc68","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(103.94737%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Did you complete the puzzle? I hope most of you have, but others may still be confused.

[{"selector":"#anim-8d34ae96-2819-42b5-a6bf-37f47ed3d1d5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-20dcf3b3-ce14-4ca9-be69-e7ae74e3dbe7","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(103.94737%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The equation can be corrected by moving one matchstick from the bottom right side of the number 8 and placing it on the left side of the number 3.

[{"selector":"#anim-941b4cdf-9706-459c-b868-46593b59cc90","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c89cb362-fe42-41e8-8c7f-e03974481196","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(105.97825%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Doing this makes the equation as: 6+3 = 9 Which is correct.
