The Constitution was ratified to reflect that in 1788; however, it was not implemented until March, 4, 1789. This is covered in Article 1, Section 2 of the US Constitution The number of representatives is currently set at a total of 435, that was established in 1911, to coincide with population growth, until briefly being set at 437 when Alaska was and Hawaii were entered into the mix in 1959, but four years later, the number was reset back at 435.
How was the great compromise important to the constitution convention?
It created a Congress system that both sides agreed to. Some states who had a lot of people, like Virginia, preferred to set up Congress based on population. Smaller states like Delaware didn't want that, because they didn't have a lot of people and would be drowned out by the larger states- so they wanted a system where every state had the same number of representatives. The Compromise fixed that - it set the Senate the way Delaware wanted it, but the House the way Virginia wanted it.
