Answer:

C)50,000 families

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, the rate of unemployment is typically estimated by taking the ration of the number of people that are unemployed and the total number of people available in the labor market. The bureau of labor usually conducts its statistics by using approximately a number of 50000 families. This is used to estimate the unemployment rate.
