Well, it's easy.
|-7| = 7 and |5| = 5. So, |-7| > |5|, |-7| has absolute value greater then |5|. The absolute value of a real number is the distance from it to 0, and -7 is farther from 0 than -5. -7 is more to the left 0f 0 then 5 is to the right of 0.
-7-------0-----5

The absolute value is the value of the number excluding any sign. Abs(-7) is 7, Abs(5) is 5. 7 is greater than 5. So the absolute value of -7 is greater than the absolute value of 5.

The absolute value of any number will ALWAYS be positive! The absolute value bars make negative numbers into positive ones and keep positive ones the same. So the abs(-7) is 7, and the abs(5) is 5. So the greater absolute value is the abs(-7).

A because of the fact somewhat the fee is the "distance" from 0 on a huge type line. so which you somewhat purely make the huge type beneficial and then whichever huge type is greatest has the terrific absolute fee.
