2. No. If we look at the table, transportation sector is having the least number of business (185), but, in the number of jobs column, Miscellaneous has the least number of jobs (1444). These 2 sectors are not the same.
3. Yes. If we look at the percent of total jobs column, Retail Trade (19.6) & Services (32.2) sums up to 51.8%.
2. No. If we look at the table, transportation sector is having the least number of business (185), but, in the number of jobs column, Miscellaneous has the least number of jobs (1444). These 2 sectors are not the same.
