It was called "The Great Compromise" and settled the composition of the new US Congress under the Constitution (1787).
There were disagreements on almost everything. It was all settled by compromise and a last minute rush to get a document together. The delegates argued over slavery, number of representatives each state would have, the powers of the President, a Bill of Rights, power of the states. There was little agreement on anything except that the articles of confederation were inadequate.
