The question is in complete. Here are the options;

1. It divided power among three branches of government. 2. It was known to the public as Common Sense. 3. It is the oldest functioning constitution in the world. 4. It proclaims that "we the people" are the source of the basic laws of the land.

The correct answer is option 2.

Explanation:

The United States Constitution is the main instrument of the American Government. Being the oldest written Constitution in the world as far back as 1787 and subsequently used in 1789, it has formed a strong basis for economic growth, political stability, social progress, and individual freedom.

The first paragraph of the written Constitution has "We the people". This means that the Constitution was written mainly to serve the people who are the foundation of the instrument.

The Constitution of the United States established three branches of government namely; Legislative branch, Judiciary branch and the Executive branch.

Given the above, the United States Constitution was not known to the public as Common Sense.
