Based on the great compromise small states would be equally represented in the Senate Royale the House of Representatives would be determined based on population

When the Constitution was being framed and the Legislature was being structured, a debate arose among the states. Smaller states wanted equal representation while the larger states said it was not fair to have equal representation with states with smaller population as equality would be trampled on.

The Great Compromise was therefore reached where it was decided that there would be two Houses in the Legislature: the Senate where there would be equal representation and the House of Representatives where there would be representation based on population.
