To convert the thickness of a fingernail from inches to a decimal format, we can simply convert the given thickness value into a decimal. In this case, the thickness of a fingernail is already given as \(0.011\) inches.

If you would like this value expressed in a different format, please clarify. However, as it stands, the thickness of a fingernail is indeed \(0.011\) inches, which is already in decimal form to three decimal places.

So:
\[
\text{Thickness of a fingernail} = 0.011 \text{ inches} \approx 0.011
\]

If you're looking for the decimal representation to three decimal places, it remains \(0.011\). If there are any specific operations or comparisons you want to perform involving this thickness or the hair diameter, please let me know!
