No it is not true. He misplaced his decimals when answering the question.

The number 4.4 goes out to the tenth decimal place, while the number .33 goes out to the hundredths decimal place.

His answer is incorrect. The answer would be 1.1 if The equation was 4.4-3.3 however since it’s .33 the answer is 4.07
