Let us explain… If the bat costs $1.00 more than the ball and the total is $1.10, then the ball must cost 5 cents and the bat must cost $1.05.

If the ball were to cost ten cents then both together would cost $1.20.

It's a tricky one, as most people read it as though the bat costs a definitive $1.00.
