If the population of the United States increased to 347 million and the number of representatives remained 435, how many Americans, on average, would each representative serve? With this population, if the number of representatives were set at the constitutional limit of one representative for every 30,000 people, how many representatives would there be in Congress? If the United Stated population were 347 million and there were still 435 members in the House of Representatives, each representative would serve about people. (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.) Therefore, if the United States population were 347 million and there were one representative for every 30,000 people, there would be (Round up to the nearest whole number.) representatives.
