The answers are 1) Congress proposes an amendment by a two thirds vote, state legislatures ratify the amendment by a three fourths vote; 3)  Congress propose is an amendment by two thirds vote in the state convention ratifies the amendment by a three fourths vote; and 4) A national convention proposes an amendment requested by three fourths of states and state legislatures ratify the amendment by three fourths vote

According to Article V of the U.S. Constitution, the Constitution can be changed (By adding or eliminating an amendment) through 2 ways:

  1. Both the Senate and the House of the U.S. Congress propose an amendment by at least two-thirds of votes in favor, and it later has to be voted on by the state legislatures OR the state conventions. Only if the amendment is approved by at least three-fourths of the state legislatures or the state convention, it becomes a law.
  2. Or the state legislatures can propose a National Convention with two-thirds of votes. In the National Convention, the amendment can be officially proposed. Only if the amendment is ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures (or conventions in three-fourths of the states), it becomes a law.
