Respuesta :

Answer: 59.27% and 4.77%.

Explanation:

Given that,

In the year 2009:

Japanese adult non-institutionalized population = 110.272 million

Labor force = 65.362 million

Number of people employed = 62.242 million

Japanese labor-force participation rate = [tex]\frac{Total\ labor\ force}{Total\ population}[/tex]

                                                                  =[tex]\frac{65.362}{110.272}[/tex]

                                                                  = 0.5927 or 59.27%

Unemployment rate = [tex]\frac{Total\ labor\ force - Number\ of\ people\ employed }{Total\ labor\ force}\times100[/tex]

                               = [tex]\frac{65.362 - 62.242}{65.362}\times100[/tex]

                               = 4.77%
