Answer:

Virginia would have one, and Delaware would have one.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Articles of Confederation created a collegiate executive body in the form of a congress, called the Congress of the Confederation. This organ was integrated in an equal way by representatives of each one of the member states of the Union, with which each state had a representative in Congress regardless of population.
