Answer:

Three-fifths compromise, compromise agreement between delegates from the Northern and the Southern states at the United States Constitutional Convention (1787) that three-fifths of the slave population would be counted for determining direct taxation and representation in the House of Representatives.

Explanation:

this was made due to disputes over the idea that slaves could count for a states overall population, and if that was the case several southern states would have a large influence due to a large population of slaves. hence the agreement that a slave could only count for 3/5th of a man, reducing the overall influence/'population' of the southern states.

Answer:

Secondary source

Explanation:

We have two types of sources of information namely; Primary sources and secondary sources. Primary sources are documents or an event that happens when a researcher is at the field. Primary sources are first-hand accounts while the secondary sources are events that have occurred before or looking into the past.  

From the above question, we can see that the princess is a researcher that wants to know the history of past princesses. The princess journal serves as a secondary source of information because it contains stories that have happened before.
