Answer:

C. 1500

Explanation:

Given the following data,

Recall that

Labour force is defined as the total number of people who are employed plus unemployed (who are looking for work).

Thus, from that definition, discouraged workers which are 25 would not be added as they are not looking for work.

Therefore, total civilian labour force

= frictional unemployment + structural unemployment + cyclical unemployment + underemployed + fully employed

= 150 + 200 + 225 + 75 + 850

= 1500

1500 belongs to the civilian labour force.
