How did the 3/5 compromise change at the end?

The population of slaves would be counted as three-fifths in total when apportioning Representatives, as well as Presidential electors and taxes. The Three-Fifths Compromise was proposed by James Wilson and Roger Sherman, who were both delegates for the Constitutional Convention of 1787.

I think it changes for when the southern people get most of their delegates or maybe when there's most issues going on in the houses of representatives.
