    D) 62.5%

    Explanation:

    Labor force = Unemployed Workers + Employed Workers

    Labor force = 200 million + 300 million

    Labor force = 500 million

    Working Age Population = 800 million

    Labor force participation rate = (Labor force / working age population) x 100

    Labor force participation rate = (500 million / 800 million) x 100

    Labor force participation rate = 0.625 x 100

    Labor force participation rate = 62.50%
