One variation is to use the reweighting formula 1/(1 + SUM/MAX). This variant reduces to D'Hondt when voters vote on party lines.
One variation is to use the reweighting formula 1/(1 + SUM/MAX). This variant reduces to [[D'Hondt method|D'Hondt]] when voters vote on party lines.


Another variant is to use the reweighting formula 0.5/(0.5 + SUM/MAX), or equivalently, 1/(1 + 2*SUM/MAX). This variant reduces to Sainte-Laguë when voters vote on party lines.

There is an infinite number of variants that all use the following formula: K/(K + SUM/MAX) where ½≤K≤1. The two above formulas are special cases for when K equals 1 and ½.
