Answer:

Hi there!!

The answer to your question is:

At the time, the three-fifths compromise was a good decision. It satisfied both sides and delayed a Civil War. However, we have progressed as a country now, and recognize that all people are equal. At the time, it was a good solution to a pressing issue, but in today's world it would be unconstitutional and unethical.

Hope this helps!
