Answer:

The first one

Explanation:

The absolute value of a negative number is the same number but positive if that makes sense. ( ex absolute value of -5 is 5 )

The absolute value of a positive number is literally that number ( ex. absolute value of 6 is 6 )

Thus, the absolute value of 1 is 1 and the absolute value of -99 is 99

99 is greater than 1 which means that the absolute value of -99 is greater than the absolute value of 1

Thus, the answer is the first one
