    797.41 s

    Explanation:

    0.850 mile = 1609 x. 85 m

    = 1367.65 m

    14 min 34.56 s

    = 14 x 60 + 34.56 s

    = 874.56 s

    Speed of swimming = Distance / time

    = 1500 / 874.56

    = 1.7151 m / s

    Time to swim a distance of 1367.65 m

    = Distance / speed

    = 1367.65 / 1.7151

    = 797.41 s
