Answer:

3

Explanation:

Firstly, do the numbers inside the absolute value bars.

-6-(-3)

The two negatives that are together turn to a addition sign.

-6+3

You can just subtract 6 and 3 which is 3 and add the - to it.

|-3|

The -3 turns to a 3 since the absolute value bars make all numbers positive within the bars.

Hope this helped.
