Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is The percent, as a decimal, of the original price that Ray pays

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Price of the ginger roots = G

Ray has the coupon for 10% off.

Therefore,

For a price of 100, he has to pay = (100-10) = 90

Thus, for a price of G, he has to pay = (90/100)G = 0.9G

Here, 0.9 signifies the fraction of the initial money or the actual price, he really has to pay.
