Question

To amend a country's constitution 7/9 of the 69 states in that country must approve the amendment. If 52 states approve an amendment will the constitution be amended

Answer 1

Answer:

Constitution will not be amended.

Step-by-step explanation:

To amend the country's constitution, number of states should approve the amendment = $\frac{7}{9}$ of 69

= $\frac{7}{9}\times 69$

= 53.67

≈ 53 states

But the states who approved the amendment = 52

And 52 < 53

Therefore, constitution will not be amended.
