Source: Preparation Material MBA Center Choose the correct choice.
A) 40
B) – 60
C) 60
D) 75
E) 100

Rationale: absolute value will turn negatives into their positive ' equivalents ' , and will leave positives unchanged , so | - 2 | = 2 , | - 25 | = 25 , and | 5 | = 5 . getting rid of our absolute values we have : | - 2 | ( | - 25 | - | 5 | ) = ( 2 ) ( 25 - 5 ) = 2 * 20 = 40
