The Constitutional Convention delegates resolved the issue of Southern representation in Congress through the Three-Fifths Compromise. This agreement determined that for the purposes of representation and taxation, enslaved individuals would be counted as three-fifths of a person. This compromise allowed Southern states to gain greater representation in the House of Representatives while acknowledging the contentious nature of slavery without directly addressing it. The compromise was pivotal in balancing the interests of both Northern and Southern states during the formation of the Constitution.
