If the population of a state is 4,702,644 how many representatives should that state have

History

Vladimir [108]3 years ago
3 0

4702644/747000 = 6.29 = 7 representatives should that state have because the US House of Representatives has one voting member for every 747,000 or so Americans.

This is  by far the highest population-to-representative ratio among a peer group of industrialized democracies, and the highest it’s been in U.S. history. And with the size of the House capped by law and the country’s population continually growing, the representation ratio likely will only get bigger.

In the century-plus since the number of House seats first reached its current total of 435 (excluding non voting delegates), the representation ratio has more than tripled – from one representative for every 209,447 people in 1910 to one for every 747,184 as of 2017.

After learning of the Nazis horrific treatment of the Jews ,The allies: A)Did little in response B)Began accepting most refugees
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

It is hard to answer with so little context, however during the war, when the allies found out about concentration camps- they did not know the extent of it. Their primary concern was to defeat Hitler's regime to stop the spread of Nazi/ totalitarian sentiments. When they began their invasion into Germany, the allies, especially the soviets, began liberating the camps. What they found horrified them beyond belief. They did not realize the horrendous extent of Hitler's torture. They then realized how horrible those camps truly were.

But like I said, their primary goal during the war was not to liberate the camps. It was to defeat Hitler.
