WEBSTER'S METHOD Problem Set Region A B C D E Total Population 56,056 84,076 112,101 168,152 140,127 560,506 PUI and PUI Quota (in percentage) 10% 15% 20% 30% 25% 100% Sample Problem (As a guide to answer prob set) STEPS 1. Determine how many people each representative should represent. o Do this by dividing the total population of all stated by the total number of representatives o Answer is called the standard divisor or divisor 2. Divide each state's population by the divisor to determine how many representative it should have o Record answer to several decimal places o Answer is called the standard quota or quota 3. Round all the Quotas to the nearest whole number (but don't forget what the decimals were) o Add the values, which can be called initial allocation or initial apportionment 4. If the total from Step 3 is less than the total number of representatives, reduce the standard divisor and recalculate the quota and allocation. If it is larger, then increase the divisor and recalculate the quota and allocation. Continue doing this until we meet the desired total number of allocation needed. SAMPLE PROBLEM Step 1. Compute the Standard Divisor Step 2. Compute the Standard Quota or Quota per state (SQ) Step 3. Compute the Standard Quota Round Off (SQRO) value and its summation Step 4: If the total of the SQRO is the same then it is done. If not, the Standard Divisor is incorrect and there should be a Modified Standard Divisor (MSD) o If the SQRD is greater than the total number to apportion MSD should be greater than SD, otherwise MSD
