Morphology
reasonably = reasonable (transparent) = reason + able + ly
The adverbial meaning 'to a fair or moderate degree' is a direct extension of 'reasonable' + '-ly' and is regularly derived.
Etymology
Reasonably can also mean 'fairly' or 'to some degree' because it comes from reasonable, which means 'fair' or 'moderate', and that is why a 'reasonably' priced item is one that is fairly priced.
