The New Jersey Plan suggested that the states should have an equal number of representitives. The Virginia Plan said the the number of representatives should be based on the state's population. Roger Sherman proposed that the Senate would have an equal number of representatives and the House of Representatives would have one representative for every 30,000 residents. This plan satisfied all of the states and became known as the Great Compromise.
