The primary focus of the New Jersey Plan was to advocate for a unicameral legislature with equal representation for each state, regardless of size or population. It aimed to address the concerns of smaller states during the Constitutional Convention in response to the Virginia Plan, which favored larger states. Among the options you've provided, none directly correspond to the New Jersey Plan's primary focus. However, if this is a question about the structure of government and representation rather than specific clauses or articles, the best response among those options is not clear. The New Jersey Plan didn't directly relate to the Necessary and Proper Clause, Preamble, Articles I-III, or the Bill of Rights, which represent different aspects of the Constitution. If forced to choose among the options, I would suggest "Articles I-III" as a loose connection since they pertain to the legislative framework, but please note that it's not an exact match.
