Method 1
Move the last "1" to a horizontal position over the second "1", thus creating "10 TO 10", or 9:50.

Method 2
Rearrange all the characters to make "1000 - L". With L representing 50 in Roman Numerals, this would become 950.

Method 3
Create "1001", "101", and "" (nothing) and change the binary to decimal to make "9", "5" and "0".
