Answer:

The Connecticut Plan

Step-by-step explanation:

The Connecticut Plan (also Connecticut Compromise, the Great Compromise or the Sherman Compromise) was an agreement that was reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. This agreement came to define the legislative structure and representation of the states. The plan proposed a bicameral structure. However, it also put forward the idea of proportional representation of the states in the lower house, and two representatives per state in the upper house.
