In respect to American government, the sole factor in determining the number of representatives that each state is entitled to have in the House of Representatives is the population of each state in question. While each state is entitled to at least one representative in the House, additional representatives are allotted based on the census-counts of state-populations, with the total number of representatives fixed at 435 in total.
The number of representatives per state in the house depends on the state's population. States with the lowest population has only one representative in the house, while California which is the most populous state, has 53 representatives.
The House of Representatives was created so that each state could have apportioned representation. The Senate has a set 100 members, 2 for each state. The House of Representatives has a certain number of members for each state depending on the population. Smaller states has a minimum of 3.
The number of senators is in the Constitution: every state has 2 senators.
