using the absolute value of each account balance to determine which account has the greater overdrawn amount here's a picture of the accounts and the balance of each. I don't understand

15)
Given:
Balance in account A=-$5.42.
Balance in account B=-$35.76.
Taking the absolute value of the account balance, we get the magnitude of the overdrawn amount.
Hence, the magnitude of the overdrawn amount in account A is,
[tex]|-5.42|=5.42[/tex]The magnitude of the overdrawn amount in account B is,
[tex]|-35.76|=35.76[/tex]Since the magnitude of the overdrawn amount is greater for account B, account B has the greater overdrawn.
16)
Balance in Account A=-$6.47.
Balance in Account B=-$2.56.
[tex]\begin{gathered} |-$6.47|=6.47$ \\ |-2.56|=2.56 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since the absolute value of balance in account A is greater, account A has greater overdrawn.
17)
Balance in Account A=-$32.56.
Balance in Account B=-$29.12.
[tex]\begin{gathered} |-$32.56|=32.56$ \\ |-29.12|=29.12 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since the absolute value of account A is greater, account A has greater overdrawn.
