Answer:

unemployment rate = (unemployed ÷ labour force) ×100

It will be NIL

Explanation:

Underemployed workers are those who are not working full time in their full capacity therefore they will not be counted as unemployed.

Discouraged workers are those who are not actively looking for job, they will neither be part of the labour force nor will be counted as unemployed.

In this case the unemployment rate will be nil as the discouraged workforce is 15000 this will not be part of the labour force reducing it to be 235,000.

Underemployed workers will not be part of labour force neither are considered unemployed they are not working at their full capacity might be doing part time job or working from home.

This will reduce the labour force from 235,000 to 220,000. As number of employment is 220,000. this means unemployment rate will be nil.
