In mathematics and political science, the quota rule describes a desired property of a proportional apportionment or election method. It says the number of seats allocated to a party should fall inside the ideal region i.e. somewhere between the floor (lower ideal or quota) and ceiling (upper ideal or quota) of the ideal value (sometimes called the exact quota).[1] For example, if a party should ideally receive 10.56 seats in parliament, the quota rule says that when the seats are allotted, the party may get either 10 or 11 seats (but cannot get more than 11 or less than 10). The most common apportionment methods, the highest averages methods, violate the quota rule.
