Answer: It is only one can that can be filled up.
Step-by-step explanation: If 1 gas can can hold 10 L of gas and you only have 7 L then how can you fill up more than 1 gas can with only 7 L? You don't have enough gas to fill up more than 1 gas can. So you are left with only 1 gas can filled but only with 7 L.
An absolute value means something distance from 0, so |8| = 8 because the distance of 8 from 0 is 8. However the |-8| still equals 8 because the distance from -8 to 0 is 8
So with that in mind, we know that |-4| is 4 because the distance -4 is from 0 is 4
So we have 4*4 = 16
