The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, settled the problem of representation in Congress by:

2. It gave each state two senators and a number of representatives based on population.

This compromise established a bicameral legislature, consisting of the Senate (with equal representation of two senators from each state) and the House of Representatives (where representation is based on population).
