One problem, nothing was said about the answer being an "out-of the box" question.
What is the correct answer within the constraints ["If you can ONLY move 2 matches"] of what was presented? The remaining "1"s cannot be compressed without moving them. You end up moving 11 matches to achieve the alleged answer.

Within the constrictions stated, 5118 is the largest number possible. By removing two matches.

Yes, I can see that now - I was assuming it was constrained to 3 digits, but it doesn’t specify that.
