Answer:

\(0.25x\)

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a lawn mower is x dollars.

The store is having a 75% end of summer clearance sale.

So, clearance rate = 100% - 75 % = 25 %

So,  the clearance price of the mower = \(25\% \times x\)

                                                                = \(\frac{25}{100} \times x\)

                                                                = \(0.25x\)

So, expression can be used to find the clearance price of the mower is \(0.25x\)
