ABSOLUTE VALUE #1

Directions: For the problems below, find the absolute value of each number. The absolute value of a number, is
distance from that number to zero, on a number line. Absolute value is always considered a positive value, never a
negative value.

1) |7| = ________ 2) |−18| = ________ 3) |39| = ________
