By using matchsticks move one matchstick to make the statement in Roman numerals true that 7 equals 1?

Answer 1

By using matchsticks to make Roman numerals we can have:

VII - VII = O

By removing one matchstick we have:

VII - VI = I

Answer 2

Move the top horizontal matchstick of the letter "V" to the left, creating the letter "I." This way, the statement "7 = 1" can be represented in Roman numerals as "I = I."
