What was the solution to the Virginia and New Jersey Plan?

The solution to the conflict between the Virginia and New Jersey Plans during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 was the Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise. This compromise established a bicameral legislature, with the House of Representatives based on proportional representation (favoring larger states, like the Virginia Plan) and the Senate providing equal representation for each state (favoring smaller states, like the New Jersey Plan). This balanced approach helped shape the structure of the U.S. Congress and facilitated the drafting of the Constitution.
