Question

What is the absolute value of –18 19 ? Write your answer as a fraction.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{18}{19}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number is how far away it is from 0 on the number line. Even though $\frac{-18}{19}$ is a negative number, the absolute value wouldn't be $\frac{-18}{19}$, because distance can't be negative. Hence the absolute value of $\frac{-18}{19}$ is $\frac{18}{19}$.
