1. The problem asks to find the absolute value of 14, written as $|14|$. 2. The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, always non-negative. 3. The formula for absolute value is: $$|x| = \begin{cases} x & \text{if } x \geq 0 \\ -x & \text{if } x < 0 \end{cases}$$ 4. Since 14 is positive, $|14| = 14$. 5. Therefore, the absolute value of 14 is 14.
