ten...10...

Answer 2

There are 10 amendments in the Bill of Rights.

In the United States, the Bill of Rights is the name by which the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution are known. They were introduced by James Madison to the First United States Congress in 1789 as a series of constitutional amendments, and came into effect on December 15, 1791, when they had been ratified by three-fourths of the States.

Two additional articles were proposed to the States; only the final ten articles were ratified quickly and correspond to the First through Tenth Amendments to the Constitution. The first Article, dealing with the number and apportionment of U.S. Representatives, never became part of the Constitution. The second Article, limiting the ability of Congress to increase the salaries of its members, was ratified two centuries later as the 27th Amendment. Though they are incorporated into the document known as the "Bill of Rights", neither article establishes a right as that term is used today. For that reason, and also because the term had been applied to the first ten amendments long before the 27th Amendment was ratified, the term "Bill of Rights" in modern U.S. usage means only the ten amendments ratified in 1791.
Right after the U.S. Constitution was ratified, twelve amendments were proposed that address deficiencies that were expressed during the ratification process, but only eleven have been ratified to date. The 3rd through 12th of the proposed amendments were ratified in the early 1790s and are known as the Bill of Rights. The second of the proposed amendments was ratified 200 years later, and the first has not yet been ratified.
