Question

Why do some states have more Representatives than other states.
a. Because the state's Representatives have seniority in the House of Representatives.
b. Because of the state's population.
c. Because of the geographical size of the state.
d. Because of the state's location.

Answer 1

Answer:

b. Because of the state's population.

Explanation:

The House of Representatives gives state's representatives based on the population they have. This means that the more population a state has, the more seats they obtain. This favors the states that have higher population more.

On the other hand, the Senate gives states equal representatives of 2 each. This favors the lower population states in allowing their voice to be heard.
