Question

Which of the following formulas is used to calculate the worker-population ratio?

Options

• \[ \text{Worker-Population Ratio} = \frac{\text{Total Population}}{\text{Total Workers}} \times 100 \]

• \[ \text{Worker-Population Ratio} = \frac{\text{Total Workers}}{\text{Total Population}} \times 100 \]

• \[ \text{Worker-Population Ratio} = \frac{\text{Total Workers} - \text{Total Population}}{\text{Total Workers}} \times 100 \]

• \[ \text{Worker-Population Ratio} = \frac{\text{Total Unemployed}}{\text{Total Labour Force}} \times 100 \]

Answer 1

The worker-population ratio is calculated as (Total Workers ÷ Total Population) × 100. Total workers form the numerator and total population the denominator, and the result is expressed as a percentage.
