None of the above. According to Article V of the Constitution, the *only* ways to amend it are 1) two-thirds of *both* houses of Congress approve it, or 2) two-thirds of the State legislatures (that is, the legislatures of two-thirds of the states) call for a Convention.

In either case, once the new amendment is approved by Congress or the Convention, then *three-fourths* of all State legislatures must approve it before it is ratified and becomes part of the Constitution.
