The Adams School District covers 4 towns. There are 22 members of the school board, and the 4 towns have the populations shown in the following table: Population Town A 25,125 Town B 18,205 Town C 11,590 Town D 20,080

1. The school district uses the Hamilton method to apportion its 22 board members to the 4 towns. How many board members are assigned to each town, using this method?
2. The following year, 900 people move out of Town D. Two hundred of these people move Town C, and 700 of them move to Town B. Now, how many board members does each town have? (Be careful. Make sure you assign a total of 22 board members).
3. Compare the results from the 2 years. Do you think they make sense? How do you think each town would react? Are they fair? Why or Why not?
