Chapter 14.3, Problem 48E

Legislative Seats Suppose that a country with a population of 10,000,000 has 250 legislative seats to be apportioned among four states, where each state has a different population. Determine a population for each state in which Hamilton’s method, Jefferson’s method, Webster’s method, and Adam’s method all lead to the same apportionment of the 250 legislative seats. Many answers are possible.
