The two correct answers regarding what was decided by the Great Compromise are:

  1. how many houses of Congress the government would include
  2. how states would be represented in Congress

The Great Compromise established a bicameral legislature (two houses) and determined that representation in one house (the House of Representatives) would be based on population, while in the other house (the Senate), each state would have equal representation.
