Census is complete and Apportionment begins (2010)
Census is complete and Apportionment begins (2010)
The 2010 U. S. Census is complete and state reapportionment is about to begin. The process of distributing the 435 Representatives appropriately to each state is a mathematically fascinating event. Engage your students in the calculation of the apportionment so that they will understand what only happens in the U.S. every ten years.
- Students see the Priority formula An= P/√n*(n+1) and practice using it to determine which state should get the next Congressional seat.
- Students learn what the ratio of voters to Representatives was originally intended to be and they calculate what that ratio has become.
