Explain how to number and reference equations in the docs

[dact221]

I found this article that explains how to number and reference figures and tables, but it doesn't explain how to do the same with equations. I have tried the bookdown style:

\begin{equation} 
  f\left(k\right) = \binom{n}{k} p^k\left(1-p\right)^{n-k} (\#eq:binom)
\end{equation} 

But it seems officedown doesn't recognize the equation environment.

I think it would be very helpful if you add this topic to the documentation of the project.

This part is managed by R Markdown/bookdown. There is no function related to equations in officedown.

I don't know a lot about equations, sorry. This is what I found about captions and equations: https://bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown-cookbook/cross-ref.html

This seems to work

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE, fig.cap = TRUE)
library(officedown)
```

See Equation \@ref(eq:mean).

\begin{equation}
\bar{X} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n} (\#eq:mean)
\end{equation}

Thanks for the example.

base_format: "bookdown::word_document2" works as expected, but the equation number is plain text. Is it possible to implement hyperlinked equation numbers in officedown like in tables and figures?
