27 amendments to the U.S. Constitution have been ratified. Three amendments (from 1798, 1810 and 1924) are technically still pending approval by three-fourths of state legislatures, though that is unlikely to happen. Then again, the 27th Amendment, regarding congressional salary increases, was proposed in 1789 but was not enacted until 1992. There have been, literally, thousands of proposed amendments that have not been passed by both houses of Congress. A study by C-SPAN counted 856 from 1989 to 1999 alone.

38, or 3/4 of the states must approve of the amendment before it can me added to the Constitution. This process does not have to happen simultaneously. It's typically for the process to take several months or even years. As soon as the criteria is reached, the amendment passes. Four amendments, some as far back as 1789 are still technically pending approval.
