Answer: Yes, made a mistake by taking out 2 in second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have started with 15 sticks= 13+2

So you take 2 which is correct.

Now, your friend takes one 13=12+1, so that leaves 12.

Now 12=8+3+1 since this involves smallest number 1 so you should have taken 1 at this point instead you took two here. So it leaves you with 10. Now, your friend takes one from it i.e. 10=9+1  leaving 9 now. Now 9=8+1, you can still take 1 from it and still be in the game. The point is to take out the smallest number involved. in the sum equal to the number that is left behind.
