Question

Which sentence provides the BEST example for sentence (4) regarding the unemployment rate?

a) For example, if the unemployment rate is 10%, that means only 10 people do not work for the military, but work as civilians.
b) For example, if the unemployment rate is 10%, that means only 10 people do not work as civilians, but work for the military.
c) For example, divide the number of unemployed people, (100) by the number of employed people (1,000), and you get the unemployment rate: 10%.
d) For example, if there are 100 people in county X, and 20 work for the military, that leaves 80 as the 'total civilian labor force.' If there are 4 unemployed civilians within those 80 people, that means the unemployment rate is 5% (4 divided by 80, or .05).
