To convert the thickness of a fingernail from inches to a decimal representation, we will simply express it as a decimal.

Given:
Thickness of a fingernail = 0.011 inches

Now, let's write it as a decimal to three places:

0.011 inches is already in decimal form, but let's ensure it's expressed to three decimal places:

0.011 can be written as 0.011.
