Math Encounters:“From Fractions to Fairness: Rounding in the apportionment of house seats and delegates” featuring Michael Jones
Wednesday, October 9, 2024
Rounding fractions to whole numbers seems simple, but plays a key role in US politics. Join speaker Michael Jones, an Associate Editor at the American Mathematical Society’s Mathematical Reviews, as he delves into the history, as well as the how and why, of different apportionment methods used to determine both the number of seats a state receives in the US House of Representatives and the number of delegates a candidate receives in presidential primaries.
Special introduction by David Reimann, Visiting Professor for Public Outreach, National Museum of Mathematics.
Math Encounters is MoMath's popular free public presentation series celebrating the spectacular world of mathematics, produced with support from Simons Foundation International.
