How can absolute value help one to understand the size of a quantity? Give an example. I'll appreciate anyone's help thanks. :)

Answer 1

If you start at the origin and walk 100 meters right, you go to x = +100 meters
If you start at the origin and walk 100 meters left, you go to x = -100 meters.
In either case you walk 100 meters.
