The correct answer is "Unemployment rate". "Percentage" and "rate" refer to the same idea -- some fraction of people within a total amount. "Unemployed" is the number of unemployed people, and "Labor force" is the total number of people who want to work (whether they have a job or not). Unemployed divided by Labor Force = Unemployment Rate.
