To amend a country's constitution, 5/6
of the 63 states in that country must approve the amendment. If 50 states approve an amendment, will the constitution be amended?
HELP ME PLEASE
Ok ten people have seen thi but no one has responed. HELPPPPPPPPPPPPP MEEEEEEEEEEEEE PLSSSSSSSSSS 😣 😖 😫 😩 🥺
Three-quarters of the states in the United States are required to ratify an amendment to the United States Constitution. Therefore, out of 50 states, 38 states or more are required.
ok thanks
impatient much?
Im no help.
To determine if the constitution will be amended, we need to calculate if 5/6 of the 63 states have approved the amendment.
First, we need to find out how many states represent 5/6 of the total number of states. We can calculate this by multiplying 63 by 5/6:
Total number of states to be approved = 63 * 5/6 = 52.5
Since it is not possible to have a fraction of a state, we need to round up to the nearest whole number. This means we would need at least 53 states to approve the amendment in order for it to be passed.
Given that 50 states have approved the amendment, which is less than the required 53, the constitution would not be amended in this case.
