Answering the question, approval by the states of Virginia and New York was considered critical in the ratification of the Constitution. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

The two states became very crucial in the ratification of the constitution simply because both states have the highest number of representatives in the government. The two states were also one of the most economically viable states and if both states fail to support the ratification, it will affect the United States economically.

The two important states that were yet to make any decision over the ratification of the United States constitution were New York and Virginia.  The two states were so crucial that they were to determine the way the country would go at that period.

With the absence of both states, the United States would split into different parts.  The effects would have been that the new government would be highly incapacitated without Virginia and New York.

At that period, Virginia was the most populous state and also the largest exporter of tobacco. New York was also important at that time because it is the fifth most populous state and the commercial capital of the United States.

However, the constitution was ratified by Virginia on June 25, 1788, and New York ratified the constitution on July 26, 1788
