Answer:

C) 35

Explanation:

The absolute value of a number can be thought of as the distance the number is from zero on a number line. A distance is never a negative number. It can be zero or a positive number.

Asking what is |-35|, the absolute value of -35, is the same as asking "how far is -35 from zero on a number line?" The answer is 35.

To find the absolute value of a number do this:

If the number is zero, then its absolute value is 0. |0|= 0

If the number is positive, then the absolute value is just the number. For example, |9| = 9

If the number is negative, then just drop the negative sign. Example: |-3| = 3
