Learn how to find the absolute values of rational numbers.
Like integers, the absolute values of rational numbers represent the
distance between the origin, 0, and where the rational number is located
on a number line.
For example, 4 = 4 , and 4 = 4 .
5 5 5 5
_45 _54
0 _54 1
1 _45
3 . Find the absolute value of each rational number.
a. 3 = 3 b. 1 4 c. 0.2 d. 2.7
