What are the uses of fractions?
Fractions are very useful in measuring. Example. I buy enough weed killer for 1000 sq. ft. of lawn because the store was out of the bottle for 500 sq. ft. SO......

There are 3 million registered voters. How many votes will he get? And, if 2 out of three will vote for him, how many will Obama get? If 2 out of 3 ....(2/3)... vote for McCain, and there are 3 million voters, 2/3 or 2 million will vote for McCain, leaving one out of three (1/3) for Obama, which is one million.

The process you are referring to is the ratification of a constitutional amendment, not a regular law. According to Article V of the U.S. Constitution, if Congress proposes a constitutional amendment, it must be ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures or by conventions in three-fourths of the states in order to become law. This is a higher threshold than the usual process for passing laws, which only requires a simple majority in both houses of Congress.
