So in doing the math.

The difference between a McDouble and a double cheeseburger is a slice of cheese, for which they charge you twenty nine cents.

The difference between a cheeseburger and a McDouble is a hamburger patty, for which they charge a penny.

And the difference between a cheeseburger and a double cheeseburger, one patty and one slice of cheese, is thirty cents.

It makes perfect sense.

Patty - 0.01
Slice Cheese - 0.29

Both together - 0.30

It works.
