How did Congress settle disagreements about Western lands? Plz help !!!

Congress divided the western lands into townships six miles square. Each township was in turn divided into 36 sections. Each section contained 640 acres. Land was to be sold by section at one dollar per acre.

Explanation:

The states without such claims argued that the western lands should be owned by the national government. Because the smaller states feared the domination of the larger ones, each state had one vote in the Confederation Congress, regardless of its size or population.
