[change two matches] five squares make four


As the title implies, imagine that the "sticks" are matches [and in fact it is better to try it with matches on the table] and the idea is to move any two matches, only those two matches and create four squares where once there were five, all squares the same size and joined, with no matches left over or sticking out.

Try it.

Answer is here.
