2) reached a compromise between the large states and the small states over representation
3) hoped to weaken the power of Congress
4) wanted to create an independent judiciary elected by the people

reached a compromise between the large states and the small states over representation

- House of the representatives: The numbers of people that each state can put in this house is depended on the number of their population.

The small states will agree to do this if the bigger states agree that they will count "Slaves" that exist in small states as 3/5 part of the population.
