Key Concepts

Absolute Value

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, meaning it is always non-negative. Evaluating an absolute value removes any negative sign, so the absolute value of a positive number remains unchanged.

Rational Numbers

Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as the quotient of two integers. When working with absolute values, it is important to recognize that the absolute value operation applies equally to fractions, treating them as any other real number.
