Toothpicks with five squares move only two to make seven squares?

Note that the question does not say how the 5 squares are arranged. Let me specify one scenario: ____ |_|_| |_|_| |_| Take the two toothpicks from the upper left corner (the upper-right and the corner right below it will do too) and put them inside one of the remaining squares like a cross +. I can count 7 squares or 8 squares, depending on whether I count the square that contains the + or not. If your question can be more specific about the count of toothpicks, perhaps we can have a better solution. ======================

24 toothpicks have been laid on a table to make 9 squares. remove 4 to leave 9 squares?

To achieve 9 squares with 24 toothpicks and then remove 4 while still maintaining the 9 squares, you can create a 3x3 grid of squares. Initially, the grid uses 12 toothpicks for the outer squares and 12 for the inner squares. By strategically removing 4 interior toothpicks that don't affect the overall formation of the squares, you can still keep the 9 squares intact. This approach allows you to maintain the structure while reducing the number of toothpicks used.

How do you make 5 squares out of twelve toothpicks?

You arrange 12 toothpicks into a large square, subdivided into four squares : 2 toothpicks on each side and four more, one each from the middle of the sides to the center of the large square. Now you have four (small) squares. Take away 2 adjacent toothpicks from the ones in the center, and you have 2 squares : one remaining small one and the large one that has the small one inside it.
