laps = input("How many laps?")
for i in range(laps):
    lap_time = input("Please enter laptime?")
    if lap_time > fastest:
        fastest = lap_time
    elif lap_time < slowest:
        slowest = lap_time
    total = total + lap_time
print("fastest =>",fastest)
print("slowest =>",slowest)
print("total =>",total)

When you get a value from input it's interpreted as a string, a character value.

To use the value as an integer, do

laps = int(input("How many laps?"))
