Answer: It would take [tex]1124\dfrac{11}{13}[/tex] minutes to mow the entire park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Area of park = 14,623 sq. feet

According to question, He can mow 13 sq. ft. of grass in one minute.

So, we can use "Unitary method":

In 1 minute, he can mow = 13 sq. feet

So, number of minutes it would take to mow entire area is given by

[tex]\dfrac{14623}{13}\\\\=1124\dfrac{11}{13}[/tex]

Hence, it would take [tex]1124\dfrac{11}{13}[/tex] minutes to mow the entire park.
