Why did the philadelphia convention take place? (be careful on this one) *

1) the articles of convention were too week, so congress decided to create a new government
2) to buy cheesesteaks
3) the articles of convention were too week, so congress decided to fix them
4) to convince spain to forgive our debt, and not attack our western borders.

which one is the correct answer? pls explain!

The Constitutional Convention was also known as the Philadelphia Convention, the Federal Convention, and the Grand Convention at Philadelphia. 

The convention's intention was to revise the Articles of Confederation. Though, many of its supporters wanted to create a new government rather than fix the one that existed.

So, you can eliminate number 2 and 4 with the given information.

So, because they ended up completely scrapping the Articles and creating the United States Constitution, I would believe that the answer is #1, but I'm not entirely sure.

But, because the original intention was to improve the Articles, it could go wither way.

The answers either 1 or 3. You choose what you think it is. Hopefully the information I gave you helped :)

3. i would say one, but one is not prime nor composite.
