解题步骤

  1. Understand the question

    19
    why was the three-fifths compromise created?
    to allow women to vote in national elections.
    to give small states more power in congress.
    to settle how enslaved people were counted for representation and taxes.
    to end slavery in the northern states.

  2. Brief Explanations

    The Three-Fifths Compromise was a 1787 agreement between Northern and Southern U.S. states. Southern states wanted enslaved people counted for legislative representation (to gain more seats in Congress), while Northern states argued enslaved people should only count for tax purposes. The compromise resolved this by counting each enslaved person as three-fifths of a person for both representation and taxes. The other options are incorrect: women's suffrage came via the 19th Amendment, small states' power was addressed by the Great Compromise (Senate representation), and ending slavery in Northern states was unrelated to this compromise.

  3. Final answer

    To settle how enslaved people were counted for representation and taxes.
