ID: 145016

Description: For travel, luggage is an indispensable item....

Steps:

1. Set the suitcase down with the combination lock facing up.

2. Turn a flashlight towards the lock, so that you can see the small details.

3. Rotate the three gears together so that the grooved part of each gear faces the outside.
4. Correct: Gear faces the outside.
5. Gear faces the inside.

6. Remember the number of the three gears when the groove part is on the outside.
7. As of now the code number of the three gears is 181.

8. Add 5 to each of the three numbers. For example, my numbers are 181. After adding 5, the code to my lock would be 636.
9. Turn the numbers on the lock to 636, and then unlock the lock.

10. Sometimes the difference is not 5 from the grooved spots. In this case, you can try to increase the numbers after adding 5.
11. For example, if 636 does not work, try to add 6 to the three numbers. Then the code is 747 and attempt to unlock the lock. Continue to add 7, then 8 to try, until it can be opened.

12. When I added 8 and my number was 969, the lock unlocked. We successfully opened the suitcase!
