People are not in the labor force= 30 millions

Employed=80 millions

Unemployed=5 millions

Labor force= Employed+ unemployed

=80+5

=85 milllions

Adult Population=LF+ people not in the labor force

=85+30

=115 millions

The labor force participation rate= ( labor force/ adult population)*100

=(85/115)100

=73.91%

d.

The unemployment rate= (number of unemployed / Labor force)*100

=(5/85)100

=5.88%
