The Great Compromise stated that representation in the House of Representatives should be determined through population. While the Senate would have an equal number of representatives from each state, the House of Representatives would include one representative for each 30,000 individuals in a state.
By making representation in the House of Representatives proportionate to population and representation in the Senate equal for each state
It solved the problem of representation in congress because the house of representatives was based on proportional representation (# of representatives based on population) which made the larger states happy and the Senate was based on equal representation (each state got two representatives) which made the small states happy. So each state was represented.
The Senate would be favored more, because in the senate, regardless of population, any state has two senators. In the House of Representatives, smaller states would have less representation, as it was based upon population.

The physical size of states, small or large, was irrelevant.The size of their populations, however, determined their representation in the lower house of Congress. So states with larger populations are better represented in the House, where the number of representatives is apportioned by population, than in the Senate where each state is represented equally by two Senators.

The number of votes each state receives in the U.S. House of Representatives is determined by the state's population. Each state is allocated a certain number of seats based on its population, as determined by the U.S. Census taken every 10 years. In the Senate, however, each state is represented by two senators, regardless of population size. This ensures that each state has equal representation in the Senate.
