Question

QUESTION 28

Answer 1

Answer:

28. Connecticut Compromise

29. The Three-Fifths Compromise

Explanation:

The Virginia Plan proposed a bicameral legislature where both chambers were based on population.

The New Jersey Plan proposed a unicameral legislature in which each state received only 1 vote in Congress.

The Connecticut Compromise did exactly that -- created a compromise -- where a bicameral legislature was put into place, but one chamber was based on population (the House) and the other chamber gave each state two votes (the Senate).

The Three-Fifths Compromise held that slaves were counted as three fifths of a person and would have three fifths of their population represented in Congress.

The 'Great Compromise' is another name for the Connecticut Compromise.
