Neco 2017 Government Question 8
Practice objective / multiple choice question 8 from the 2017 Neco Government examination.
Country X has four states with populations: A \(2.5\) million, B \(1.2\) million, C \(0.8\) million and D \(0.5\) million. The lower house must have \(120\) seats. Each state must receive at least \(5\) seats. The remaining seats are allocated proportionally to population using the largest remainder method. After this allocation a constitutional amendment limits any state to at most \(30\%\) of the total seats. Seats are transferred from states exceeding the limit to those below it, preserving the minimum of \(5\) seats per state and keeping the total at \(120\). What is the final number of seats allocated to State D?
