part: 2 / 4
part 3 of 4
(c) find the upper and lower quotas for each school.
the lower quota for rrhs is , cchs is , hhhs is , and mhs is .
the upper quota for rrhs is , cchs is , hhhs is , and mhs is .

Explanation:

Step1: Recall lower quota rule

The lower quota of a number is the greatest - integer less than or equal to the number.

Step2: Calculate lower quotas

For RRHS with standard quota 5.711, the lower quota is $\lfloor5.711
floor = 5$.
For CCHS with standard quota 8.354, the lower quota is $\lfloor8.354
floor = 8$.
For HHHS with standard quota 13.11, the lower quota is $\lfloor13.11
floor = 13$.
For MHS with standard quota 7.825, the lower quota is $\lfloor7.825
floor = 7$.

Step3: Recall upper quota rule

The upper quota of a number is the smallest - integer greater than or equal to the number.

Step4: Calculate upper quotas

For RRHS with standard quota 5.711, the upper quota is $\lceil5.711
ceil = 6$.
For CCHS with standard quota 8.354, the upper quota is $\lceil8.354
ceil = 9$.
For HHHS with standard quota 13.11, the upper quota is $\lceil13.11
ceil = 14$.
For MHS with standard quota 7.825, the upper quota is $\lceil7.825
ceil = 8$.

Answer:

The lower quota for RRHS is 5, CCHS is 8, HHHS is 13, and MHS is 7.
The upper quota for RRHS is 6, CCHS is 9, HHHS is 14, and MHS is 8.
