What is Fair? 1.) Martha and Ray want to divide the last piece of cake their mother baked last night. Propose a method for dividing the piece of cake that will seem fair to both of Martha and Ray. 2.) Juan and Mary are the only heirs to their mother’s estate. The only object of significant value is the house in which they were raised. Propose a method for fairly dividing the house. 3.) The sophomore, junior, and senior classes of Central High School have 333, 288, and 279 students, respectively. The school’s student council is composed of 30 members divided among the three classes. Determine a fair number of seats for each class.

Estate Division (Who’s getting what?) Upon her death, a mother leaves a farmhouse, a townhouse, and a 20 acres of land. The four heirs cannot decide on who gets what and a fair price to sell the items at, so they must be distributed in the fairest way possible. The following chart shows each heir and their bid on all items. State each person’s fair share and their final settlement. Ruth Steve Tina Uma Farmhouse $380,000 $350,000 $325,000 $400,000 Townhouse $250,000 $260,000 $300,000 $280,000 Land $100,000 $140,000 $125,000 $130,000

Total of Bids Fair Share Ruth 730000 /4 = 182500 Steve 750000 /4 = 187500 Tina 750000 /4 = 187500 Uma 810000 /4 = 202500

Amount Fair Share - Item = owed/needed Ruth 182500 - 0 = 182500 Steve 187500 - 140000 = 47500 Tina 187500 - 300000 = -112500 Uma 202500 - 400000 = -197500

BANK amount of money in bank at 0 beginning of problem 112500 amount Tina owes + 197500 amount Uma owes 310000 -182500 amount Ruth needs -47500 amount Steve needs 80000 left over money 80000 / 4 = 20000 (give this to each person)

Ruth $202500 Steve $67500 and land Tina $-92500 and townhouse Uma -197500 + 20000 = -177500 Final Settlement: Ruth $202500 Steve $67500 and land Tina $-92500 and townhouse Uma $-177500 and farm house

Estate Division (Who’s getting what?) The Jonas Brothers have decided to spilt and venture out on their solo careers.

Apportionment – the distribution of an item fairly among a group. Ideal ratio - Total population Number of seats Quota - individual population ideal ratio Truncate – eliminate the decimal portion of the number (this is NOT rounding)

a.) Find the ideal ratio (round to the nearest tenth) Apportionment A school has the following student populations: senior – 435, juniors 522, sophomores – 581, and freshmen – 653. There are 50 seats in the student council. a.) Find the ideal ratio (round to the nearest tenth) b.) Find the quota for each class c.) Find the apportioned number of seats for each of the four methods (Hamilton, Jefferson, Webster, and Hill)

Methods of Apportionment Hamilton Method – award the remaining seat(s) to the choice with the highest decimal in the quota. If there are more than one seat to award, then highest decimal first and work your way in descending order until all seats are awarded.

Hamilton’s Method Class Students Quota Truncated Hamilton Sr 435 ( /43.8) 9.93 9 10 Jr 522 ( /43.8) 11.92 11 12 So 581 ( /43.8) 13.26 13 13 Fr 653 ( /43.8) 14.91 14 15 2191 47 50 need 3 Ideal Ratio = 2191/50 = 43.8 Hamilton uses the highest decimal from the quota to decide who receives the next seat.

Jefferson Method – Find the adjusted ratio for each choice and the adjusted ratio closest to the ideal ratio receives the seat. If more than one seat is being awarded, then start with choice whose adjusted ratio is closest to ideal ratio and work your way out until all available seats have been awarded. adjusted ratio = Individual population truncated quota + 1

Jefferson’s Method Adjusted Class Students Quota Truncated Ratio Jefferson Sr 435 ( /43.8) 9.93 9 435/10= 43.5 10 Jr 522 ( /43.8) 11.92 11 522/12=43.5 12 So 581 ( /43.8) 13.26 13 581/14=41.5 13 Fr 653 ( /43.8) 14.91 14 653/15=43.53 15 2191 47 50 Ideal Ratio = 2191/50 = 43.8 need 3 Divide the class population by the truncated value + 1

Methods of Apportionment Webster Method - Find the adjusted ratio for each choice and the adjusted ratio closest to the ideal ratio receives the seat. If more than one seat is being awarded, then start with choice whose adjusted ratio is closest to ideal ratio and work your way out until all available seats have been awarded. adjusted ratio = Individual population arithmetic mean (In this case, the arithmetic mean will be the same as truncated quota + .5)

Webster’s Method Adjusted Class Students Quota Truncated Ratio Webster Sr 435 ( /43.8) 9.93 9 435/9.5=45.78 9 Jr 522 ( /43.8) 11.92 11 522/11.5=45.39 12 So 581 ( /43.8) 13.26 13 581/13.5=43.04 14 Fr 653 ( /43.8) 14.91 14 653/14.5=45.03 15 2191 47 50 Ideal Ratio = 2191/50 = 43.8 need 3 Divide the class population by the truncated value + . 5

adjusted ratio = Individual population geometric mean Hill Method - Find the adjusted ratio for each choice and the adjusted ratio closest to the ideal ratio receives the seat. If more than one seat is being awarded, then start with choice whose adjusted ratio is closest to ideal ratio and work your way out until all available seats have been awarded. adjusted ratio = Individual population geometric mean __________________ The geometric mean is: √ (truncate) X (truncate + 1)

Hill’s Method Adjusted Class Students Quota Truncated Ratio Hill Sr 435 ( /43.8) 9.93 9 45.85 9 Jr 522 ( /43.8) 11.92 11 45.43 12 So 581 ( /43.8) 13.26 13 43.07 14 Fr 653 ( /43.8) 14.91 14 45.06 15 2191 47 50 Ideal Ratio = 2191/50 = 43.8 need 3 Divide the class population by the Square root of truncated value times the truncated value plus one

b.) Find the quota for each county Apportionment The new island state of Bennettland has 30 seats to award the 6 counties that make up the state’s House of Representatives. Here are the populations of the 6 counties: A – 1000, B – 250, C – 2344, D – 311, E – 634, F – 531. a.) Find the ideal ratio b.) Find the quota for each county c.) Find the number of apportioned seats in all four methods.

Induction Steps for solution: 1.) Plug in a value for the variable and check to see if the equation works for a value. 2.) Write the original equation 3.) Rewrite equation and change the variable to the variable k. 4.) Write the equation in terms of k+1 5.) Substitute the right side of the equation in terms of k into the beginning of the left side of the equation in terms of k+1. Solve (Make both sides look the same, show your work)

Solve by Mathematical Induction 1.) 1 + 2 + 3 + … + n = n (n+1) 2

Step 1 1 + 2 + 3 + … + n = n ( n+1) 2 Plug in any value for n to see if the equation works for a value. Set n = 4 So, 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 4 (4 + 1) 2 10 = 20 10 = 10 √ works On the left side the value for n represent the number of terms you are going to use to find the value, I chose n=4, so I used the first four terms. The last term on the left side tells you how the pattern is formed.

Steps 2 and 3 1 + 2 + 3 + … + n = n ( n+1) 2 1 + 2 + 3 + … + k = k ( k+1) 2

Steps 4 1 + 2 + 3 + … + n = n ( n+1) 2 1 + 2 + 3 + … + k = k ( k+1) 2 1 + 2 + 3 + … + k + (k+1) = (k+1) ( (k+1) +1) 2 Notice the left side the k+1 is placed at the end and on the right side the variables k are changed to k+1

Step 5 1 + 2 + 3 + … + n = n ( n+1) 2 1 + 2 + 3 + … + k = k ( k+1) 2 1 + 2 + 3 + … + k + (k+1) = (k+1) ( (k+1) +1) 2 k ( k+1) + (k+1) = (k+1) ( (k+2) 2 2 Solve…
