The missing words in the sentence are "two-thirds" and "three-fourths".
When an amendment is proposed, it must have a vote of two-thirds in both houses of Congress or be requested by three-fourths of state legislatures. Three-fourths of states must approve the amendment in order for it to be ratified.
To answer this question, let's break it down step by step.
When an amendment is proposed, it must have a vote of legislatures in both houses of Congress or be requested by a certain number of states. This means that either the amendment must receive approval from the legislatures (lawmaking bodies) in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, or it can be requested by a certain number of state legislatures.
After the proposal stage, the amendment then needs to be ratified in order to become a part of the Constitution. For an amendment to be ratified, a certain number of states must approve it. The exact number of states required for ratification is not mentioned in your question, but it typically requires approval from three-fourths (or 75%) of the states.
So, to summarize, for an amendment to be added to the Constitution, it must first be proposed and approved by the legislatures in both houses of Congress or be requested by a certain number of states. Then, it must be ratified by a sufficient number of states which is usually three-fourths of them.
