Which article details how the Constitution can be amended?

• A. Article V
• B. Article VI
• C. Article VII
• D. Article I

Answer: (A)

The main concept tested is where the Constitution explains how it can be changed. The amendment process is described in Article V. It provides two paths to propose amendments: a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress or a national convention called by two-thirds of the states. To become part of the Constitution, proposed amendments must then be ratified by three-fourths of the states, either through state legislatures or by state ratifying conventions, depending on the method chosen. This design ensures that changes reflect broad consensus across the country and across states, rather than being driven by a narrow faction.

Other articles cover different topics: one establishes the legislative branch, another includes the Supremacy Clause, and another concerns the ratification of the Constitution itself.
