C. Virginia Plan
The Virginia Plan proposed representation in Congress based on state population (which is how the House of Representatives is set up today). The New Jersey Plan favored equal representation for each state; the Great Compromise combined both ideas (House by population, Senate equal); the 3/5ths Compromise dealt with how to count enslaved people for representation and taxation.
