Question

How do you evaluate `-12/(abs(-1)+1`?

Answer 1

-6

Explanation:

First, solve the denominator: `|-1|` + 1
`|-1|` is in an absolute value. When you take the number out of the absolute value, it would be `1`.
The denominator would be `1 + 1 = 2`

Solve: -`12/2`
Either simplify or divide.

Simplify:
The common factor would be `2`. Divide `-12/2=-6` and `2/2 =1`.
The final answer would be `-6/1` or simply -6.

Divide:
`-12 divide 2` = -6
