Answer: The correct answer is : To achieve this, all states would have to accept the amendment.

Explanation: Although the articles of the confederation were very difficult to amend, the approval of all states would be necessary, which is very complicated in a democracy. To pass the existing laws it was necessary that 9 of the 13 states agreed.
