Because the bat costs one dollar more it means that both of them have an equal price but one of them costs one dollar more. To prove this you can first take away one dollar from the number, then you are left with ten cents. if you divide 10 into two you get 5, and then you can add one to the bat and then the bat costs one dollar more.
