  1. I want to say 10 cents but that's too easy.

  2. Bat $1.00
    Ball 4 cents
    Tax 6 cents

    Total $1.10

  3. 10:56 That's if you live in Maryland. In Delaware the ball would be 10 cents.

  4. It is 5 cents. 1.05-.05= $1.00. 1.05+.05=1.10

  6. It's not 10 cents because then the difference between the ball and the bat would be 90 cents ($1-10 cents). It's 5 cents - $1.05 - .05

  8. I agree with 11:35. The bat has to be $1.00 MORE than the ball. So if the bat is $1.05 & the ball is $.05 you've got the $1.10. There's no tax because it was bought online. :-)

  12. Whoever buys it for whatever the price is, donate it to the Yankees because they sure need the practice.
