    See below.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    d - 0.75d means take the original price and subtract 75% of it to get the rest.

    Rena's expression means that if it is 75% off then you pay 25%. This is 0.25d or 0.25 times the original price.

    Answer and step-by-step explanation:

    In Adam's expression, d represents the original price of the game. 0.75d represents 75% of the original price; this is the amount of the discount, since everything is 75% off. Taking the difference of the original price and the discount,

    d-0.75d,

    gives us the total price of the game.

    In Rena's expression, 0.25 represents 25%. This is because taking 75% off of the price means we still pay 100-75 = 25% of the original price.

    Multiplying the original price, d, by the 0.25, gives us 25% of the original price; this is the total price.
