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

Constitution will not be amended.

Explanation:

To amend the country's constitution, number of states should approve the amendment =
`(7)/(9)` of 69

=
`(7)/(9)* 69`

= 53.67

≈ 53 states

But the states who approved the amendment = 52

And 52 < 53

Therefore, constitution will not be amended.
