Review: Absolute Value on Number Line
Explanation
Absolute value is best thought of as distance from zero.
The point here with the smallest distance from zero is C. The point with the
second-least distance from zero is B. The distance from zero of C is zero, or
close to zero. The distance from zero of B is a little less than 1, and the
distance from zero of D is a little more than 1. The correct answer is (B).
