a track team needed to run or jog 20 laps for their practice. of the total 20 laps, sara completed 4/5, Jamie completed 5/8, Keenan completed 5/9, maya completed 0.833, and trey completed 0.875. identify the descending numeric order of the laps completed.

Answer 1

To find the descending numeric order of the laps completed, we need to convert all the fractions and decimals to a common denominator.

First, we can convert the fractions to a common denominator of 40:
Sara completed (4/5) * 40 = 32 laps.
Jamie completed (5/8) * 40 = 25 laps.
Keenan completed (5/9) * 40 = 22.222 (rounded to 22) laps.

Now, let's convert the decimals to a common denominator of 40 as well:
Maya completed 0.833 * 40 = 33.32 (rounded to 33) laps.
Trey completed 0.875 * 40 = 35 laps.

In descending order, the laps completed are: Trey, Maya, Sara, Jamie, Keenan.
Descending numeric order: 35, 33, 32, 25, 22.
