Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Given:

Unemployed labor = 60,000

Workers wanting job = 20,000

Thus,

Total unemployed labor = Unemployed labor + Workers wanting job

=  60,000 + 20,000

or

Total unemployed labor = 80,000

Now,

the Total labor force with discouraged workers =  people are in the labor force + Workers wanting job

or

= 300,000 + 20,000

or

labor force with discouraged workers = 320,000

Therefore,

Unemployment rate with discouraged workers

=  (Total unemployed labor / labor force with discouraged workers) × 100

or

= ( 80,000 / 320,000 ) × 100

or

Unemployment rate with discouraged workers  = 25%
