Question

How do you find the absolute value of `abs(0)`?

Answer 1

`|0|=0`

Explanation:

Absolute value of a number is its value sans its sign, positive or negative i.e. for `+17`, it is `17` and for `-17` to it is `17`.

Number `0` does not have any sign and `+0=-0=0`. Hence, we can say that `|0|=0`.

Graphically, absolute value of a number can be described as distance of its location on real number line from origin i.e. point described as `0`, irrespective of its direction, whether towards positive or negative side of origin.

Again as distance of `0` from origin is `0`, its absolute value `|0|=0`
