My child has an upcoming test on the U.S. government, and is having trouble answering the following question: How many votes have to be cast to approve a treaty, and who approves the treaty? Thanks in advance.

The senate. Two-thirds majority is required.

Treaties must be approved by 2/3 votes in the Senate.
Executive agreements (e.g., NAFTA), on the other hand, must be approved by a majority vote in Congress.
Both treaties and executive agreements must be approved by the President.
While the above answers are correct, you could probably have gotten more detailed explanations had you posted in the appropriate forum.

Um, I think that you put this into the wrong spot to ask stuff for.
And I think that it's like a bill, so the voting is the same. But I'm not really sure as we never really covered that in my US History class.

umm, im not shure, but i think it is the congress, and the congress has 7 people i think, so there has to b atleast 4 votes to win, it is 7 so theres never a tie, the congress aproves it too.
