I could get three ways to 'fix' and my nephew's wife found the fourth one too! :thumb:
Rack your brain and find out, friends! :welcome:

 

[auh]

0 + 4 = 4 (life the horizontal matchstick from the 6 to make it 0)
8 - 4 = 4 (lift the vertical matchstick from the addition symbol and attach it to 6 to make it 8)
5 + 4 = 9 (move the bottom left vertical stick from 6 and keep it at the top of the result to make it 9)

 

[கால பைரவன்]

Found two more.

5 + 4 ≠ 4 (move the bottom left vertical stick from 6 and put it across the 'equal to' sign to make it a 'not equal to' sign)

6 - 4 ≠ 4 (similar as above)

Hehehe...

 

[Raji Ram]

Well done Auh Ji and very well done K B Ji! :clap2:

Shall tell my nephew's wife about the fifth solution!

Remove the horizontal stick from the top of numeral six - the numeral still remains six - and use the stick to make equal sign to not equal sign. the equation becomes 6 + 4 IS NOT EQUAL to 4

Remove the bottom right vertical stick from 6 to make it E and put across the equal to sign to make it ≠. and the equation becomes

E + 4 ≠ 4

E + 4 ≠ 4

Do you write 3 like a kid??

I guess the puzzle is only with numbers.

 

[auh]

what does E stand for in math?

I told this solution when my nephew's wife brought in the [FONT=MathJax_Main]≠ [/FONT]fundA but my family said that I should NOT change that 6!! :becky:

 

[Raji Ram]

what does E stand for in math?

2.7182818284590452353602874713527 (and more ...)

But I learnt is as 'e' and not 'E'.

 

[Raji Ram]

Talking about 'e', I found something interesting on net. Here it is:

''you can remember the curious pattern that after the "2.7" the number "1828" appears TWICE:

2.7 1828 1828

​

And following THAT are the angles 45°, 90°, 45° in a Right-Angled Isosceles (two equal angles) Triangle:

2.7 1828 1828 45 90 45 ''​

Move one stick of = to make it > (looks like >)
6+4 > 4

 

[Raji Ram]

Move one stick of = to make it > (looks like >)
6+4 > 4

Yeah, Prof Sir. It does look like >. :thumb:

 

[auh]

One more...

Take one matchstick and strike it on a matchbox and burn the other matchsticks to get convenient equations...

Here is a little piece I wrote six years ago

E + 4 ≠ 4

Don't be irrational!

 

[auh]

Don't be irrational!

But E is irrational !

Take it easy...

 

[Raji Ram]

But E is irrational !

Take it easy...

Long time since I posted a situation song.

So, here it is: Oorvasi Oorvasi

That's why I made that comment. Oh Well!!
