Hi Guys - can you please help me with this

This question is from OG11 - Problem Solving Section, Question 20

Of the following values: -2, -2, 0, 1, 2 which has the greatest absolute value?

The answer given by OG is -2.

However i believe both 2 & -2 are correct answers as they both ahve the same absolute value. Then why does OG say only -2 is the correct ans?

thanks :)

You're absolutely correct!

That is a well-known typo in early printings of the OG11!
