Answer:

OA. They wanted all slaves to count toward a state's population.

Explanation:

The issue of slaves being counted as part of the general population was one factor that will help the southern states gain more seats and increase their political influence. But at the same time, including them in the count would mean paying higher taxes.

But as long as their political hold and representation would be more, the Southern states were ready to make that sacrifice. But considering the number of slaves to be included if counted, the Northern states have the lower hand. So, a compromise was drawn, which suggests that three-fifths of the slave population would be counted in all states, be it the South or the North. This compromise was made during the 1787 United States Constitutional Convention, to clear out the issue of direct taxation and also representation in the House.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
