Webster Method
Round quotas as if you would round any decimal to a whole number. Find Webster Adjusted Ratio. Any extra seats given to highest WAR, seats can be removed from lowest WAR.
Webster Adjusted Ratio= Class Size Arithmetic Mean
*Arithmetic Mean- Add two numbers and divide by 2

Hill Method
Round quotas as if you would round any decimal to a whole number. Find Hill Adjusted Ratio. Any extra seats given to highest HAR, seats can be removed from lowest HAR.
Hill Adjusted Ratio= Class Size Geometric Mean
*Geometric Mean- Multiply 2 numbers and take the square root
