Answer:
Because it lets them have equal say with other states
Explanation:
States with smaller populations favor having a set number of representatives in Congress because it allows them to still have an influence on politics. If representation in a body of power depends on population size, then the states with a larger population will have more representatives, and therefore the interests of the larger states will be pushed more, while the smaller states' voices will be drowned out. Larger states would most likely prefer representation based on population because it gives them more say on politics and because it serves the interests of the majority of the overall population.
The correct answer would be the choice A
The de facto control of West Florida, which had been in American hands since Andrew Jackson had established the American presence in 1818, was recognized, and
a firm delineation of the border between the Louisiana Purchase and the remaining Spanish claims in North America was settled, beginning with the Sabine River between Texas and Louisiana.
The United States assumed the claims of its citizens against Spain, up to $5 million, and Pinckney's Treaty of 1795 was continued to the extent that it did not conflict.
The Spanish were not pleased with the treaty and delayed ratification while hoping to gain support from fellow European powers. None was forthcoming and after King Ferdinand was reduced to a constitutional monarch in 1820, Spain approved the treaty.
