what nullified the 3 5 compromise in the us constitution?
the thirteenth amendment
in addition to abolishing slavery and prohibiting involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime, the thirteenth amendment nullified the fugitive slave clause and the three-fifths compromise. the population of a state originally included (for congressional apportionment purposes) all "free persons", three-fifths of "other persons" (i.e., slaves) and excluded untaxed native americans. the three-fifths compromise was a provision in the constitution that required three-fifths of the population of slaves be counted for purposes of apportionment of seats in the house of representatives and taxes among the states. this compromise had the effect of increasing the political power of slave-holding states by increasing their share of seats in the house of representatives, and consequently their share in the electoral college (where a state's influence over the election of the president is tied to the size of its congressional delegation).

great dodecicosahedron









































in geometry, the great dodecicosahedron (or great dodekicosahedron) is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as u. its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral.









































it has a composite wythoff symbol, 3 5/3 (3/2 5/2) |, requiring two different schwarz triangles to generate it: (3 5/3 3/2) and (3 5/3 5/2). (3 5/3 3/2 | represents the "great dodecicosahedron" with an extra 12 {10/2} pentagons, and 3 5/3 5/2 | represents it with an extra 20 {6/2} triangles.)









































its vertex figure "6.10/3.6/5.10/7" is also ambiguous, having two clockwise and two counterclockwise faces around each vertex.
