Oceanview Jefferson
Jefferson method?
Given the cities and the populations below, use the hamilton method of apportionment to distribute 25 seats on a regional board.
City POP
Greenville 34,569
riverdale 27,943
oceanview 21,350
parkview 16,138
1. Compute the divisor D = (Total population)/(Number of seats)
D=(100000/25)=4000
2. Find and round down state quotas {(city population)/D}.
Greenville= 8 (8.6423)
Riverdale= 6 (6.9858)
oceanview= 5 (5.3375)
Parkview= 4 (4.0345)
unallocated seats = 1
3. The leftover fractional parts add up to a whole number of seats
Distribute the surplus seats, one per state, starting with the largest leftover fractional part, then proceeding to the next largest, and so on, until all the surplus seats have been dealt with.
add one to Riverdale as .9858 is the largest factional part, and your final answer is
Greenville= 8
Riverdale= 7
oceanview= 5
Parkview= 4
