An alternative method for finding the standard quotas is to divide each state’s population, p, by the total population of the country, P, and then multiply by the number of seats to be apportioned, M. In other words, each state receives the same percentage of seats as its percentage of the country’s population. Set up an algebraic expression for this calculation, and show that it is equivalent to the standard method for finding the standard quotas as was presented in this section.
