Why did the North agree to the Missouri Compromise?

It would lessen the power that the South had in Congress, and lessen the number of slave states.

Explanation:

The compromise said that any state under the 36'30 degree line was slave, and anything above it was free. If more territory were to be added as states, the North would have majority rule in government, and there would be less slavery in America.
