Answer 1

To constitute a majority in a group of 100 U.S. senators, you need more than half of the total number.

Half of 100 is 50, so a majority would require at least 51 senators.

None of the provided options give the correct answer, which is 51. However, if you must choose from the given options, 50 is the closest, but not a majority.
