Step 1: Find the absolute value of -3

To find the absolute value of -3, simply remove the negative sign: \[\|-3\| = 3.\]

Step 2: Find the absolute value of 11001

11001 is already a positive number, so the absolute value will be the same: \[\|11001\| = 11001.\]

Step 3: Find the absolute value of -4.7

To find the absolute value of -4.7, remove the negative sign: \[\|-4.7\| = 4.7.\]
