<meta content="This test checks that when the initial containing block's writing-mode is 'horizontal-tb' and its 'direction' is 'rtl', then an absolutely positioned box (with 'left: auto', 'width: auto' and 'right: auto') whose containing block is the initial containing block must set 'right' to the static position. Whether such absolutely positioned box's 'writing-mode' is vertical or not is irrelevant." name="assert" />

"
If all three of 'left', 'width', and 'right' are 'auto': First set any 'auto' values for 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' to 0. Then, if the 'direction' property of the element establishing the static-position containing block is 'ltr' set 'left' to the static position and apply rule number three below; otherwise, set 'right' to the static position and apply rule number one below.
(...)
1. 'left' and 'width' are 'auto' and 'right' is not 'auto', then the width is shrink-to-fit. Then solve for 'left'

So:

0px : margin-left

auto : width

0px : padding-right

75px : border-right-width

0px : margin-right

auto : right
====================
: width of containing block (width of Initial Containing Block)
