The Virgina Plan was more "approved" than the New Jersey Plan.

The Virginia Plan served largely as the foundation of the U.S. Constitution. However, the concerns of detailed in the New Jersey plan were addressed and incorporated via the Great Compromise. In this compromise, the issue of proportional representation was resolved in the creation of a proportionally represented House of Representatives (proportional to number of people in each state) and an equally represented Senate (each state was granted the same number of representatives, regardless of the number of people living in the state).

The 3/5 compromise was another key part of the Great Compromise. In this compromise, it was agreed that each person working as a slave would count as 3/5 of a person, adding to the representational power of states who had enslaved many people.

How was the dispute solved between the Virginia and New Jersey plan?

The Virginia Plan wanted to give states congressional votes based on population (more people = more votes), but this would mean smaller states would have less power and influence in government. The New Jersey Plan was made by the small states to counter it, proposing that each state get an equal amount of votes to be fair. However, the large states contended that they couldn't possibly represent the varied opinions of a huge population in the votes of just a couple representatives. The debate was settled in the Connecticut Compromise. The US would have a bicameral legislative (2 houses): One with the number of votes determined by population (The House of Representatives), and one where each state got just 2 votes (The Senate). Both houses must come to an agreement before a law is passed and each have checks and balances on each other.

Who is war strategy was the anaconda plan?

That was Winfield Scott, the General-in-Chief who was still in the chair in 1861, although far too old for the job. His long-term plan for the war was ridiculed as 'Scott's Anaconda' (slow strangulation) at a time when almost everyone else thought it would be a short and fairly bloodless war. Time would prove him right, and the Union did eventually put this sort of plan into effect.
