Answer: C. The 56 delegates voted NOT to revise the Articles of Confederation, but to write a new constitution for the United States.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Shays Rebellion and certain other events convinced the Americans that a stronger central government was needed than was being provided by the Articles of Confederation.

In the Constitutional Convention that followed, delegates from most states met and during their discussions decided that it would just be better to write a new Constitution that would that their unique situation into account. This led to the creation of the U.S. Constitution.
