Yes the equations are equivalent
If I am understanding the question correctly, farmers make up .02% (rounded to the nearest hundredth, full answer is .0192307) of the population. I calculated this by dividing 5,000,000 by 260,000,000. I then moved my decimal over 2 places to the right to convert it to a percent.
Powers of ten! is the answer
Factors of 18: 1; 2; 3; 6; 9; 18
Factors of 27: 1; 3; 9; 27
GCF(18; 27) = 9
<span>18 + 27 = 9 × 2 + 9 × 3 = 9 × (2 + 3) </span>
