Question 13

Step1: List all populations

Populations: Hamilton ($747545$), London ($494069$), Barrie ($197059$), Collingwood ($21793$), Cobourg ($19440$), Elliot Lake ($10741$).

Step2: Compare and sort

Compare the numbers: $747545 > 494069 > 197059 > 21793 > 19440 > 10741$.
So cities from greatest to least: Hamilton, London, Barrie, Collingwood, Cobourg, Elliot Lake.

Compare the population numbers of all cities: $747545$ (Hamilton), $494069$ (London), $197059$ (Barrie), $21793$ (Collingwood), $19440$ (Cobourg), $10741$ (Elliot Lake). The smallest number is $10741$ which corresponds to Elliot Lake.
