This matchstick puzzle starts with the number 539, but the challenge is to create the smallest possible number by moving only two matches.
The trick is to look carefully at which digits can be transformed while still forming recognizable numbers. Every match you remove must be placed somewhere else, so you cannot simply take pieces away.
One clever solution is to turn the 5 into a 2 and transform the 9 into a 5.
