The formula used to determine the number of House Seats for each State
is the Method of Equal Proportions. Each State is automatically assigned
one seat to start with (as each State MUST have at least one seat in
Congress). First, assign seats 1 thru 50 of 435.

Equal Proportions are used to determine which states shall receive
seats 51 thru 435. Divide each State's population by the square root
of n(n-1) where n equals the number of potential seats for a given
State. The result is called the Priority Value.
Priority Value = Population ÷ SQRT( ( N×(N-1) ) );
where N = potential seats (2 to 53) for the state
Assign seats 51 to 435 from those states with the largest priority values.
