$[\begin{array}{c} 1 & 5 & | - 2 | \\ 0 & 0 & | 1 | \end{array}]$

Step 1

The absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. The distance between $- 2$ and $0$ is $2$ .

$[\begin{array}{c} 1 & 5 & 2 \\ 0 & 0 & | 1 | \end{array}]$

Step 2

The absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. The distance between $0$ and $1$ is $1$ .

$[\begin{array}{c} 1 & 5 & 2 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array}]$
