HELP 37 POINTS!! ASAP

Use the following text from the Twelfth Amendment to answer the following question:

The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President.

In what way was the Twelfth Amendment important in the election of 1824?

No presidential candidate had received the majority of Electoral College votes.
Some states had illegally appointed their electors to the Electoral College.
The House of Representatives had not yet been elected for that year.
The Speaker of the House was also a presidential candidate at the time.

PLS HELP ASAP!!!

here is the real reason

Explanation:

This election is notable for being the only time since the passage of the Twelfth Amendment in which the presidential election was decided by the House of Representatives, as no candidate received a majority of the electoral vote. This presidential election was also the only one in which the candidate receiving the most electoral votes did not become president (because a majority, not just a plurality, is required to win). It is also often said to be the first election in which the president did not win the popular vote, although the popular vote was not measured nationwide. At that time, several states did not conduct a popular vote, allowing their state legislature to choose their electors.
