Neco Model Questions Vol1 2023 Government Question 16

Country X has a 120‑seat parliament. Eighty seats are filled by first‑past‑the‑post (FPTP) in single‑member constituencies and the remaining 40 seats are allocated by a party‑list proportional representation (PR) system. Only parties that obtain at least 5 % of the national vote **or** win at least three constituency seats qualify for PR seats. The election results are: - Party A: 45 % of the national vote, 45 constituency seats. - Party B: 28 % of the national vote, 25 constituency seats. - Party C: 12 % of the national vote, 5 constituency seats. - Party D: 8 % of the national vote, 5 constituency seats. Using a simple proportional allocation of the 40 PR seats among the qualifying parties (based on their vote shares), round each party's share down to the nearest whole seat and give any remaining seat to the party with the largest fractional remainder. Determine the total number of seats (constituency + PR) that each party will hold after the allocation.
