Answers
Answer:
the one half compromise is right
The three-fifths compromise.
Explanation:
The three-fifths compromise reached at the Constitutional Convention established that the population of enslaved people in a state would be only partially represented in that state's official population for representation and taxation purposes.
The three-fifths compromise majorly impacted politics in the U.S. for many years. It allowed pro-slavery states to have a disproportionate influence on the presidency, the Supreme Court, and other positions of power.
According to the three-fifths clause, Article one, section two of the Constitution of the United States declared that any person who was not free would be counted as three-fifths of a free individual for the purposes of determining congressional representation. The “Three-Fifths Clause” thus increased the political power of slaveholding states.
