1. The Hamilton Method

Step 1: Get the standard divisor.

→ Total populations: 12576 + 13146 + 14105 + 13578 + 12986

= 66,391

→ Number of seats: 25

Standard Divisor: total population/ number of seats

→ 66,391/25

= 2655.64

Step 2: Get the standard quota and lower quota for each state and then Hamilton’s
apportionment.

Standard Quota (get the quotient of the population and the standard divisor):
→ State 1= 12,576/ 2,655.64
= 4.735
→ State 2= 13,146/ 2,655.64
       = 4.950
→ State 3= 14,105/ 2,655.64
       = 5.311
→ State 4= 13,578/ 2,655.64
       = 5.112
→ State 5= 12,986/ 4.889
 = 4.889

Lower Quota (the standard quota must be rounded down)

→ State1 = 4
→ State 2= 4
→ State 3= 5
→ State 4= 5
→ State 5= 5
Total = 22

Hamilton’s Apportionment (the standard quota must be rounded up)

→ State 1 = 5
→ State 2= 5
→ State 3= 5
→ State 4= 5
→ State 5= 5
Total = 25

FINAL OUTPUT:

2. Adam’s Method

Step 1: Find the standard divisor.

 → 12,567 + 13,146 + 14,105 + 13,578 + 12,986 = 66,391
→ SD: 66,391/25 = 2,655.64
 
Step 2: Pick a modified divisor, d, that is slightly more than the standard divisor
→ Modified Standard Divisor (MSD): 2,900
 
Step 3: Divide each state’s population by the modified divisor to get the modified quota.
→ State 1: 12,567/2,900 = 4.33
→ State 2: 13,146/2,900 = 4.53
→ State 3: 14,105/2,900 = 4.86
→ State 4: 13,578/2,900 = 4.68
→ State 5: 12,986/2,900 = 4.48
 
Step 4: Round each modified quota up to the upper quota.
→ State 1: 4.33 = 5
→ State 2: 4.53 = 5
→ State 3: 4.86 = 5
→ State 4: 4.68 = 5
→ State 5: 4.48 = 5
 
Step 5: Find the sum of the upper quotas.
→  5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 25
 
FINAL OUTPUT:
STATE POPULATION STANDARD FAIR ROUNDED
QUOTA SHARE SHARE
1st  State 12,567 12,5672,900 = 4.33 4.33 5

2nd State 13,146 13,1462,900 = 4.53 4.53 5

3rd State 14,105 14,1052,900 = 4.86 4.86 5

4th State 13,578 13,5782,900 = 4.68 4.68 5

5th State 12,986 12,9862,900 = 4.48 4.48 5

                                                                                          TOTAL 25

3. The Huntington-Hill Method

Computation of the divisor: 

66,391 / 25 = 2,655.64

Computation of the Geometric Mean:

→ State 1 = 4.47
→ State 2 = 4.47
→ State 3 = 5.48
→ State 4 = 5.48
→ State 5 = 4.47

Allocation of Surplus Seats:

→ State 1 - 4.74 > 4.47 —-> 5 seats
→ State 2 - 4.95 > 4.47 —--> 5 seats
→ State 3 - 5.31 < 5.48 —--> 5 seats
→ State 4 - 5.11 < 5.48 —--> 5 seats
→ State 5 - 4.89 > 4.47 —--> 5 seats
*if SQ  is >  GM = round up, if SQ is < GM = round down
