Answer:

1

Explanation:

The absolute value of a number is the distance that number is from zero.

A more accurate description is to say the absolute value of a number is the value of the number regardless of its "+" or "-" sign, which is also known technically as its "polarity".

So, the absolute value a, if a>0? is 1, because there is 1 at the back of a but it's silent.
