C. The sum is greater than 1 because the sum shades more than one hundredths grid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The sum of 0.52 + 0.61

= 0.52 + 0.61

= 1.13

The sum of 0.52 + 0.61 is greater than 1 with a value of 0.13

0.52 + 0.61 > 1

There are 10 tenth in 1 and 100 hundredth in 1

The sum of 0.52 + 0.61 will give 100 hundredth + 13 hundredth

The sum is greater than 1 because the sum shades more than one hundredths grid.

Picture of a hundredth grid is attached for better understanding

From the picture, 4 hundredth is shaded that is 0.04
