    7.5%

    Explanation:

    The formula to compute the unemployment rate is shown below:

    Unemployment rate = (Number of Unemployed workers) : (Total labor force) * 100

    where,

    Number of people employed is 185 million

    And, the labor force is 200 million

    So in order to find out the unemployment rate, we subtract it by 1

    = 1 - ($185 million : $200 million)

    = 1 - 0.925 million

    = 7.5%
