To find the solution to the expression -5.1 - 6.2, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Start by subtracting the absolute values of the numbers. Ignore the signs to start with.

5.1 - 6.2 = 1.1 (round to one decimal place)

Step 2: Determine the sign of the answer based on the original signs of the numbers being subtracted.

In this case, -5.1 - 6.2 involves subtracting a negative number from a negative number. When you subtract a negative number from another negative number, it is the same as adding the absolute values. Therefore, the answer will be positive.

Step 3: Place the sign back onto the answer.

So, the final answer is 1.1.

Therefore, the correct option is C. 1.1.
