To solve the given problem involving absolute value, follow these steps:

Step 1: Calculate the absolute value of (12)(-8)
|(12)(-8)| = |-96| = 96

Step 2: Calculate the absolute value of (10-4)
|10-4| = |6| = 6

Step 3: Add the absolute values calculated in Step 1 and Step 2
96 + 6 = 102

So, the solution to the mathematical problem involving absolute value |(12)(-8)| + |10-4| is 102.

|12(-8)|+|10-4| = |-96| + |6| = 96 + 6 = 102. So the correct answer is 102.
