    1. A mother plans to distribute 35 chocolate bars to her 4 children based on the minutes they spent doing chores. Using the Hamilton method, she calculates the standard divisor as 21 minutes. She then divides each child's minutes worked by the standard divisor to determine how many chocolate bars each child receives, rounding down to get the lower quota. This results in each child receiving 4, 7, 9, and 15 chocolate bars respectively. 2. Using the Jefferson method, she again calculates the standard divisor as 21 minutes. But for the Jefferson method, she uses a modified standard divisor of 20.5 minutes. She then divides each child's minutes worked by the modified standard divisor, rounds to get the lower quota, and this
