Burns · Answer 2

The great compromise and the three-fifth compromise solved the biggest challenges of ratifying the constitution.

Explanation:

The US constitution was formed in the year 1787. The key compromises that facilitated the ratification were the great compromise and the three-fifth compromise. These compromises were a result of various debates and discussions.

The great compromise made the congress bicameral with two houses, the House of Representatives and the senate. Representation in the House of Representatives is based on population where states would be assigned seats in proportion to their population. In the senate, all states would be equally represented.

The three-fifth compromise counted three out of every five slaves as population for the purpose of legislative representation and taxation.
