Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's 2/3 of the house and senate.

It then has to go to the state legislatures. 2/3 of those houses have to call for a constitutional amendment.

Article five of the constitution has a more detailed description, and the constitution looks like it has been changed over the years. However this is the current method of passing an amendment.
