Virginia would have one, and Delaware would have one vote in the legislature as per the Articles of Confederation even though Virginia had ten thousand citizens and Delaware had five thousand citizens.

Further Explanations:

The clauses written within the Constitutional convention of 1787 reflected the requirement for a strong Centralized government for the nation. The newly drafted Constitution gave legality to the new state and declared them sovereign. The Constitution provided a national identity to the citizens of the new state as Americans. The government organized on the doctrines of the Confederation laid emphasis on maintaining regional autonomy.

As per the Article, Virginia was sanctioned one, and Delaware also one vote in the legislation, even though Virginia was having 10 thousand citizens and Delaware had five thousand citizens overall as it is stated in the Article of confederation that the representation of each state will not be decided on the basis size and populace of the State.
