The debate at the Constitutional Convention regarding representation occurred between small states and large states. A deal with struck with the Connecticut Compromise, which included proportional representation in the House of Representatives based on population.
Two answers: The Great Compromise: made Congress a bicameral legislature, with one house having representation based on population of the state (House of Representatives), and the other with equal representation (Senate) The 3/5 Compromise: made each slave count as 3/5 of a person in population counting.
The Constitutional Convention created two legislative sections. One (House of Representatives) is based on population, currently capped at 435 members. The other (Senate) contains the same number of members (two) for each state.
The so-called Great Compromise occurred in the US Constitutional Convention of 1787.
It established the bicameral (two-house) legislature of the US Congress, wherein the lower House of Representatives is constituted according to population while the upper house provides equal representation (2 senators) for each state.
This was agreeable to smaller states, who did not want to be outvoted by more populous states, and larger states, who did not want Congress to be controlled by a minority of the country's population.
Each state was given two senators, but the larger states received more representatives in the House, as they were apportioned by population.
Representation was such a difficult issue to resolve because it consisted all legislation.
