Absolute value makes all things inside positive (make result positive) so one example is |x+1|=4 so if you had 3 in it woul dyhave |3+1|=4 |4|=4 4=4 true
-5/8 divided by -3/4 is the same as -5/8 multiplied by -4/3. Multiply the tops to get 20. Multiply the bottoms to get 24. A negative over a negative is positive and you end up with 20/24! :)
