fixed for being technically wrong and much smaller than actually possible

5e98
means 5 x 10^98
which means 500000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
get fucked m8s

>>722925209
By resizing shit, you're technically "moving" *way* more than a single match stick.

>>722925524
I'm only doing it for clarity.

>>722924313

>>722924512
Correct answer

>>722923990
9909 best i can come up with. not sure how people are getting 1's

>>722926934

take the top and bottom matches from the 0's

>>722926965
ah okay. I assumed the spaces between numbers must be correct

>>722924234
You can't turn that first 0 into a 1 while only moving two matches.

>>722927440

91188 bitch.

>>722925512
C'mon man, don't be the retard. You take the top and bottom matches off of the first zero.

>>722928282
Now this is thinking outside the box, well done that anon.
If however the OP meant what is the highest possible number moving only two match sticks and only using 4 didgits, then my answer would be 9909.

>>722928888

but isn't that just adding arbitrary stipulation to the question?

>>722929122
Nothing was stipulated by OP to say you could only use 4 didgits.

>>722929492

....yes, that was the point of the question? Saying to use only 4 digits is an arbitrary stipulation.

500 911

>>722923990
If I can break one matchstick in half, I can make
900 ^ 9

>>722930745
You're cheating by making 1s out of a single matchstick and you still don't have the highest answer here.

>>722923990
Move 2 matches from the 8 to make 5 then add a 1

50051

>>722930745
why not 511009

>>722930979
Explain to me why that's cheating.

I know it's not the highest -- I posted
>>722930923
right afterward,
but neither of these is "cheating".

They're matchsticks. Pretend they're on a table and /manipulate them/ as such.

>>722924234
511108 yo le noob

Doesn't say shit about breaking matchsticks, retards. If you could, it would be infinite.

>>722923990
51108^11

>>722931156
The one after you is even worse. Yours is arguably fine, but breaking sticks is definitely not allowed.

The highest answer that I consider legitimate is 511108.
