Answer

Brief Explanations:

  • The first option is incorrect because giving one vote per state is not related to land area; it does not prioritize states with more land.
  • The second option is incorrect as one vote per state does not give more populous states more power (a system based on population would allocate votes differently, like in the House of Representatives).
  • The third option is correct. Allowing each state one vote in a governing body (like the Articles of Confederation's Congress) was a way to ensure that regardless of size (land or population), each state had an equal say in decision - making.

Answer:

C. To make sure each state had an equal voice in decision - making (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C with the first option as A, second as B, third as C)
