Answer:

At least 9 out of the 13 states needed to approve a law before it could be pass from the congress.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • All states agree to send the delegates to Congress to vote on law or proposal.
  • Congress could pass the laws although at least 9 out of the 13 states had to approve the law before it could pass and become the law.
