Answer:

3/4.

Explanation:

The process of amendments to the Constitution of the United States is established and specified in Article V of said regulation. This process can be initiated by Congress or by the state legislatures, and once the amendment is approved by them, the legislatures of at least 3 out of 4 states (75% of the total) must ratify the amendment so that it becomes operative and is inserted into the constitutional text.
