Let us know what you think.

Hint:

a plus sign (+) is made up of a (-) and a (|).

VI+IV=IV

To solve this equation, we need to understand Roman numerals. In Roman numerals, "I" represents the number 1, "V" represents the number 5, and "IV" represents the number 4.

The original equation "VI + I = IV" translates to "6 + 1 = 4" in Arabic numerals, which is not true.

To make the equation true, we need to move only one "I" or "V" to create a new equation that holds true.

If we move the "I" from the right side of the equation to the left, it becomes "V + I = IV", which translates to "5 + 1 = 4" in Arabic numerals. However, this equation is still not true.

If we move the "V" from the left side of the equation to the right, it becomes "VI = IV + I", which translates to "6 = 4 + 1" in Arabic numerals. This equation is true.

So, the answer is to move the "V" from the left side of the equation to the right, resulting in the equation "VI = IV + I".
