Answer:

A

Explanation:

To calculate the adult population, we simply make use of the data available from the BLS.

We can simply make the calculations by adding the number of employed Adult Americans to the number of unemployed adult Americans.

We simply do not have any business with the number not in labor force because they are actually part of those that are employed but are not just in the labor force.

The adult population is thus:

143,929,000 + 11,460,000 =155,389,000
