This question is based on the concept of distance. Hence, the absolute value to show the distance between –80 and 15 is 95 units. Therefore, the correct option is C.

In this question, we have to determined the absolute value to show the distance between –80 and 15.

According to question,

We have to calculated the distance between  -80 and 0 and  0 and 15 .

As we know that distance can not be negative.

The distance between -80 to 0 is

⇒  0-(-80) =80

The distance between 0 to15 is

⇒  15 - 0 = 15

Therefore, the total distance  from - 80 to 15 is

80 + 15 = 95 units

Hence, the absolute value to show the distance between –80 and 15 is 95 units. Therefore, the correct option is C.
