The "Unemployed" rate would be 12 million / 260 million = 12/260 = 4.6 %. In fact the unemployed rate does not use the whole population as a denominator, but a smaller value. The part of the population that, for whatever reason, is currently unemployable - such as children, retired people, terminally ill people - are excluded from the equation.

Is it possible for unemployment rates to increase at the same time that the number of employed persons is increasing?

Yes. Just means that people are replacing others, so for every one unemployed, one is employed.Another answer:No. In the above case, the status (rate) would stay the same as 1 merely replaces the other, but the ratio of unemployed to the total available work force remains the same. For example, if you have 50 unemployed and 50 employed workers, the unemployment rate is 50%. 51 unemployed and 51 employed is still 50%. Adding one more worker (i.e. just graduated from school), and you still have 50 unemployed, but now there is 51 employed. The rate now changes from 50% unemployed to 49.5% unemployed, so the unemployment RATE decreased by adding the one employed person. You CAN have unemployed NUMBERS, but not rate, increase at the same time as the employed NUMBERS increase, however.
