Question

what was the primary topic of the great compromise?
the number of states in the union
the legality of slavery
the president
the design of the legislative branch.

Explanation:

The Great Compromise (1787) resolved a dispute between large and small U.S. states over legislative representation. Large states favored representation based on population, while small states wanted equal representation per state. The compromise created a bicameral legislature: the House of Representatives (population-based) and the Senate (equal representation for each state). The other options are unrelated: state count was not its focus, slavery was addressed in other compromises, and the presidency was a separate constitutional topic.

Answer:

the design of the legislative branch.
