Answer:

The first step in adding an amendment to the U.S. Constitution is when it is passed by a two-thirds vote of both houses of Congress.

Explanation:

When an amendment to the Constitution is proposed, it is accepted and adopted into Constitutional law only with a vote by both the House of Representatives and the Senate.  There needs to be a two-thirds majority approval of the measure or the amendment will not pass. There have been 27 amendments to the Constitution in its history. The first 10 amendments are known as the Bill of Rights.  The last amendment was passed in 1992 but it was first proposed in 1789. The 27th Amendment makes it so congressional salaries cannot be changed until the next set of representatives are elected.
