Answer:


\texttt{Time required to mow = }1124(11)/(13)minutes

Explanation:

The groundskeeper of Estofer Park needs to mow 14,623 sq. ft.

Total land to be mow = 14,623 sq. ft

He can mow 13 sq. ft. of grass in one minute.

Land mow in one minute = 12 sq. ft.


\texttt{Time required to mow = }(14623)/(13)=(13000+1623)/(13)=1000+(1623)/(13)\\\\\texttt{Time required to mow = }1000+(1300+323)/(13)=1000+100+(323)/(13)=1100+(260+63)/(13)\\\\\texttt{Time required to mow = }1100+20+(63)/(13)=1120+(52+11)/(13)\\\\\texttt{Time required to mow = }1120+4+(11)/(13)=1124(11)/(13)minutes


\texttt{Time required to mow = }1124(11)/(13)minutes
