60% of 50 mill......0.6(50 mill) = 30 mill...this is the labor force participation
unemployment rate of 5%....0.05(30 mill) = 1.5 mill
1.5 million were unemployed <==
** if the unemployment rate is 5%, that means 5% of the labor force, not the entire adult population because some of the adult population might be too old or disabled and cant participate in the labor force. The labor force is people that are able to work.
Answer:
6,000,000
Step-by-step explanation:
So first I would say, what if all of them were dimes, how far away would it be from $14?
So 92 coins * 10 cents = $9.20
So it's 4.80 dollars away from 14 dollars.
So if we were to switch one to a quarter, it would increase by 0.15 cents.
So we want to see how many increases we need to reach 4.80 dollars more.
4.80/0.15 = 32
So there are 32 quarters and 60 dimes.
