Question 8 • DRHS Legal Environment of Business (06.41500) GA

What is the number of representatives in the House Representatives per state based on?

Answer
A
a state's population
B
a state's land mass
C
the number of registered voters
D
all of the above

Explanation

The number of representatives each state has in the U.S. House is based on its population. The seats are apportioned among states using population counts, so land area and the number of registered voters do not determine a state's representation. The correct choice is “a state's population.”
