The compromise that was made to make the Constitution appeal to the southern state was? 1/2 Compromise? 3/5 Compromise? The Slav
guapka [62]

Answer:

3/5 Compromise.

Explanation:

A constitution refers to a set of written laws and principles which is typically used to determine the power and authority of the government, as well as guarantee the fundamental rights of its citizens.

The Three-fifths Compromise was a compromise reached among delegates who came from the southern and northern states during the United States Constitutional Convention which held in 1787.

These delegates had disputes on how slaves are to be counted during census to determine the total population of each state which, consequently would determine the amount of taxes to be paid, as well as the number of house of representative seats. They reached a compromise by agreeing that three-fifths (three out of five) of the slave population are going to be counted to determine direct taxation and representation in the house of representatives.

Hence, the compromise that was made to make the Constitution appeal to the southern state was the Three-Fifths Compromise.
