Change it so, that the equation is right. You may just add 1 line to each equation

1) 5+5+5 = 550
2) VI + XI = XII

Spoiler:
1) 5+545=550 (you know, you change + into 4)

Guess we're not allowed to change = into =/=, right?

The 2) one I solved by moving a line...
III + XI = XII
but if it's about adding one, then I'll need to think some more.

Spoiler:
I found other possible answers to these riddles but I'm sure these are the answers you are looking for.
1)545+5=550 or 5+545=550
2)You add a line to the V and you get square root of 1 +XI=XII

Yeah, I asked about that already. And does it still remain as an equation? I mean there's no "X equals Y" in it.

yes(i think) that is still an equation,
its called a true equation because its true that
5+5+5 not equal to 550
that same goes to the other one.

If you're strict, then it's a inequation. So not a equation :p XD

It was a nice riddle, the solution was simple but it took me a while to figure out the answer.

Oh man... It's been a long time since I thought about riddles... Okay got it ~nya!

It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you'll die. What is it?

I'm not in the mood for hard riddles ~nya...
