The unemployment rate is equal  to 5.1%.

<h3>What is the unemployment rate?</h3>

The labour force consists of those who are willing and able to work and are within the working age - 16 to 65 years. The employed includes all who have jobs. The unemployed includes those without jobs who are actively looking for jobs.

Types of unemployment includes:

  • Cyclical unemployment
  • Structural unemployment
  • Frictional unemployment

The unemployment rate can be determined by dividing the number of workers that are unemployed by the total number of the labor force of the economy.

The unemployment rate  = (number of unemployed workers / total labor force) x 100

The unemployment rate  = (7.8 million / 153 million) x 100 = 5.1%

Answer:

b. Sales promotion

Explanation:

Sale promotions are activities that a company engages in to persuade a potential customer to buy its products.

This case uses a free sample technique ( free dog biscuits) as the promotion method. Other ways of conducting sales promotions include discount vouchers, free money coupons, and competitions.
