1. Add a period at the end of the sentence: "The problem was easily solved."
2. Change the word "easily" to "easy" to match the subject-verb agreement: "The problem was easy solved." (Note: This is grammatically incorrect; the correct fix is to change "was" to "is" or rephrase, but following the symbol's instruction strictly, this is the direct application.)
3. Add a comma after "solved" to separate clauses: "The problem was easily solved, and we moved on."
4. Add a question mark at the end of the interrogative sentence: "Is the problem solved?"
5. Delete the extra space between "easily" and "solved": "The problem was easily solved."
6. Insert a missing word, such as "the," before "problem": "The problem was easily solved."
7. Change the order of words to improve clarity: "Easily solved was the problem." (Note: This is awkward; better would be "The problem was solved easily.")
8. Add a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence: "The problem was easily solved."
9. Add a quotation mark to close the quoted text: "The problem was easily solved."
10. Add a hyphen between "well" and "known" if applicable: "The well-known problem was easily solved."
