This problem is posed INCORRECTLY - I just had a chance / (a pleasure) to note it couple of days ago,
when the problem arose for the first time at the forum.

The matter is that in a normal city, in addition to employed and unemployed, there are other categories of habitats:
children, students, housewife, retired.

Therefore, as formulated, the problem is fault.

Please do not post it to the forum again.

It is good for recycling, only.
