Answer and Solution
Answer
B. More workers employed than required
Solution:
Disguised unemployment refers to a situation where more workers are employed in a task than actually required, leading to inefficiency. An example in urban areas could be multiple family members working on a small business, and in rural areas, it could be excess labor on a farm where some workers are not contributing significantly to output.
