legislatures of both states. maybe that was hard, next, how many states were required to approve the original constitution in order for it to be in effect? that's right, nine states were required to approve the constitution. finally, name two things which the states are forbidden to do by the u.s. constitution? the answer? coin money or make treaties. so how did you do? as a professor, i would like to give my students every opportunity for success. so i'm going to give you a bit of a make huff up exam in case you didn't get them all correct. i'll give yo a crack at a few more questions, these shouldn't be quite so hard. take a look at this jelly bean jar, these are a regular guest on the mhp show. how many jelly beans are in that jar? not sure? take this one. this is a bar of soap. if i were to wash my hands with the soap, how many bubbles would be in the bar? both of those are pretty impossible questions to answer,
