Answer

The result of allowing both the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan to determine the structure of Congress was the creation of a bicameral legislature, with a compromise known as the Connecticut Compromise or the Great Compromise. This resulted in the establishment of a House of Representatives, where representation is based on population (as proposed by the Virginia Plan), and a Senate, where each state has equal representation (as proposed by the New Jersey Plan).
