Standard divisor formula
[tex]\text{ standard divisor = }\frac{\text{total population}}{\text{ number of }allocated\text{ items}}[/tex]
Given that California wants to apportion 200 new electric vehicles, then 200 is the number of allocated items.
The total population is obtained from the table.
Then, the standard divisor is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ standard divisor = }\frac{2700+20956+25938}{\text{2}00} \\ \text{ standard divisor = }\frac{49594}{\text{2}00} \\ \text{ standard divisor = }247.97 \end{gathered}[/tex]
