To amend the U.S. Constitution, 3/4 of the 59 states must approve the amendment. If 35 states approve an amendment, will the constitution be amended?

Answer: No

Explanation:

For one, there are 50 states in the United States.

35/50= .7

Even if there were 59, the answer is still no, as it would lower the percentage. Hope this helps.
