A significant area of disagreement among delegates at the Constitutional Convention was how to decide how many representatives from each state to appoint to Congress--with the smaller states wanting it to be a set number, and the larger states wanting it to be proportional to the state population size. The result was the the Connecticut Compromise created two houses, thus satisfying both states.
A soldier in the Somerset Light Infantry recalled that when he was conscripted in 1939, his pay was two shillings (10 pence) per day, or 14 shillings per week (70 pence), but that his civilian job had paid him £6 (120 shillings per week).
Hope that helps!!:) Brainliest??
The solution reached by the Great Compromise was that:
1) The number of representatives from a state in the House of Representatives would be based on a states population.
2) Each state would have two Senators regardless of the states population.
Both elements of this agreement deal with the structure of Congress. Congress consists of the legislative branch of our federal government and plays an important role, as their main job is to develop laws for the entire country to follow. In this case, both states with small populations and large populations feel satisfied with the structure of Congress after the Great Compromise was passed.
