the revolutionary war ended.
both the declaration and the constitution were
drafted by representatives.

Explanation:

1. Analyze the first option: The Revolutionary War was from Apr 19, 1775, to Sep 3, 1783. The Constitution was drafted in 1787 (after the war ended in 1783), so this is false.
2. Analyze the second option: The Declaration of Independence was for declaring independence, not ending a war (the Treaty of Paris ended the war). The Constitution didn't end a war, so this is false.
3. Analyze the third option: The Declaration of Independence was approved on Jul 4, 1776, and the Revolutionary War ended on Sep 3, 1783. So the Declaration was approved before the war ended, making this false.
4. Analyze the fourth option: The Declaration of Independence was drafted by representatives of the Continental Congress, and the Constitution was drafted by representatives at the Constitutional Convention. This is true.

Answer:

Both the Declaration and the Constitution were drafted by representatives.
