The labor force of a country is the sum of the working people, whether employed or not, that is, it excludes retirees, children and people who are out of necessity.

<u>The unemployment rate of a country is the percentage of the workforce that is unemployed.</u>

In this case the workforce is 30 million people and the unemployment rate is 5%.

In this way, the number of unemployed is 5/100 x 30,000,000 = 1,500,000 people which is the same of 1,5 million people.

The fourth answer is correct (D).
