The Great Compromise combined the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan. The Virginia plan was to have Representatives in the government according to population. The New Jersey plan was to have each state represent themselves in the government. That is how we have a bicameral government today. Each state has two senators and House of Representative members according to the districts the state contains, which is divided by population.
