Earliest Time, Two MovesPuzzle 1 of 8

14:18 — Earliest Time in 2 Moves

The matches show a 24-hour clock at 14:18. Move 2 matches to make the clock show the earliest time possible. Rules: the clock runs from 00:00 to 23:59; hours and minutes always have two digits, so a leading zero is fine (05:08), and the colon stays in place; every digit must be whole, as on a digital clock; matches can’t be broken, crossed or laid at an angle.
