Answer 1

To identify the descending numeric order of the laps completed by each team member, we first convert any fractional laps into decimal form:

- Sara: 45 laps
- Jamie: 58 laps
- Keenan: 59 laps
- Maya: 0.833 laps
- Trey: 0.875 laps

Now, let's write them out with the decimal laps included:
- Sara: 45
- Jamie: 58
- Keenan: 59
- Maya: 0.833
- Trey: 0.875

Now, we will order these numbers in descending order:

1. Keenan: 59
2. Jamie: 58
3. Sara: 45
4. Trey: 0.875
5. Maya: 0.833

Putting it all together, the descending order of laps completed is:

Keenan, Jamie, Sara, Trey, Maya.

So the answer in the blanks would be:

Keenan, Jamie, Sara, Trey, Maya.
