Answer: +5
Explanation: When a problem is asking us to find the absolute value of a number, it's really asking us how far is that number from zero.
So the absolute value of -5 is really asking us
how far is -5 away from zero on a number line.
I have drawn a number line below and you can see that -5
is 5 units to the left of zero which means its 5 units from zero.
So the absolute value of -5 is +5.
