Question

To amend a​ country's constitution, 5 6 of the 52 states in that country must approve the amendment. If 44 states approve an​ amendment, will the constitution be​ amended

Answer 1

Answer: Yes. It will be amended

Explanation:

Since 5/6 of the 52 states in a country must approve the amendment before the country's constitution is amended, then the number of states that must approve it will be:

= 5/6 × 52

= 43.33

= 43 approximately

Since 44 states approve an​ amendment, the constitution be​ amended since it's more than 5/6 of the 52 states.
