The budget for a university allowed for the purchase of 30 multimedia classroom packages. Each campus division claims they need the stations more than the other divisions, so the apportionment decision will be made according to student enrollment in each division. Enrollment figures are provided in the following table.

a. Use Hamilton’s method to apportion the 30 multimedia packages to the divisions.

b. Suppose the budget allowed for the purchase of 1 more multimedia package, for a total of 31 packages. Reapportion the multimedia packages to the divisions.

c. Compare the apportionments from parts (a) and (b), and describe what happened under the reapportionment. Did the Alabama paradox occur?
