Answer 2

By definition, the absolute value of a number is given by:

`| a | = a`
Where,
The number a is a real number. This means that the value of a is both negative and positive.
The result is always greater than zero.
Therefore, the absolute value of the given numbers is given by:

`|9.8| = 9.8`

`|-(10)/(3)| = (10)/(3)`
Answer:
the absolute value of 9.8 and of -10/3 is:

`|9.8| = 9.8`

`|-(10)/(3)| = (10)/(3)`
