To compare all decimals , first bring the decimal numbers to the same number of decimal places, ( 2 in this case) , by inserting suffix zeroes.

Hence. 0.9 & 0.11

Becomes

0.90 & 0.11

Drop the decimal point

090 & 011

Drop the prefix (trivial) zero .

90 & 11

I think you will agree that 90 is greater than 11 ( 90 > 11)

Hence it follows that 0.9 > 0.11

NB THis method is good for comparing all decimal numbers.

I like make these into questions about money. Make 0.9 into $0.9 which is ninety cents. Make 0.11 into $0.11 which is eleven cents. I think I would like the 0.9 which is ninety cents and not the 0.11 which is eleven cents.

Well, honey, let me break it down for you. 0.9 is definitely smaller than 0.11. It's simple math, darling. Just because 0.9 looks like it's almost a whole number doesn't mean it's bigger than 0.11.

No; 0.11 is eleven hundredths. 0.9 is nine tenths which is the same as 0.90, or ninety hundredths.
