Answer 1

The correct option is A Yes

Let's understand this with place value chart.


In the place value chart for $1.1$, we see that at the Hundredths place, it has no hundredths while in $1.10$, it has $0$ at the Hundredths place that has value $\frac{0}{100}=0$.

So, both decimals $1.1$ and $1.10$ are equivalent to each other.
$\Rightarrow 1.1=1.10$
