Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is explained below.

Explanation:

The constitutional convention was held from May 14 to September 17, 1787 in Philadelphia. Its purpose was to decide to decide to revise the Articles of Confederation  and decide how America would be governed in future, while the great compromise was the solution that how the congressional power would be shared between the larger and smaller states

It was an agreement between the small states and the large states regarding the sharing of power under the US constitution.  The compromise solved the issue of representation of states in the congress. It established house of Representatives and allowed them to work efficiently.

The smaller states demanded equal representation while the larger states wanted proportional representation based on population.

The small sates got equal representation in the Senate while the larger states got the House of Representatives that followed the proportional representation.  

Both the Constitutional convention and great compromise were meant to safeguard the future of USA.
