The best statistic to determine where to post advertisements for a job fair would be a) unemployment rates. This is because areas with higher unemployment rates are likely to have a greater number of individuals actively seeking employment opportunities, making it a prime location to advertise a job fair. Additionally, individuals who are unemployed are more likely to be actively searching for job opportunities and therefore more likely to attend a job fair.
