Read the excerpt from Robert Yates’s notes from the Constitutional Convention on June 11, 1787. Mr. Wilson was of opinion, and therefore moved, that the mode of representation of each of the States ought to be from the number of its free inhabitants, and of every other description three fifths to one free inhabitant. The Three-Fifths Compromise established equal representation in Congress regardless of a state’s population. established proportional representation in Congress for both large and small states. established that a state’s enslaved population would be counted for partial representation. established that slavery would be outlawed within twenty years of the Constitution’s ratification.

The Three-Fifths Compromise established that a state’s enslaved population would be counted for partial representation.

Explanation:

The Three-Fifths Compromise was an agreement made between delegates during the Constitutional Convention (1787) that established that the number of seats in the House of Representatives for each state should be calculated in accordance to the number of free persons (excluding Indians not taxed) and the three-fifths of slaves in every state. In other words, the Compromise counted three out of every five slaves as people for partial representation. This agreement would increase the power of slave states.
