Let’s go step by step through each question using the list of 50 U.S. states provided.

We’ll count carefully and double-check our work.

---

Question 1: How many states begin with the letter “A”?

Look at the list:

- Alabama
- Alaska
- Arizona
- Arkansas

That’s 4 states.

Check: A-l-a-b-a-m-a, A-l-a-s-k-a, A-r-i-z-o-n-a, A-r-k-a-n-s-a-s → all start with A. No others.

→ Answer: 4

Question 2: How many states begin with the letter “W”?

Look for W:

- Washington
- West Virginia
- Wisconsin
- Wyoming

That’s 4 states.

Check: W-a-s-h-i-n-g-t-o-n, W-e-s-t V-i-r-g-i-n-i-a, W-i-s-c-o-n-s-i-n, W-y-o-m-i-n-g → all start with W. No others.

→ Answer: 4

---

Question 3: How many states begin with the letter “D”?

Look for D:

- Delaware

Only one? Let’s check again.

List scan:

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware... yes, only Delaware starts with D.

Wait — what about Dakota? North Dakota and South Dakota start with N and S, not D.

So only Delaware.

→ Answer: 1

---

Question 4: How many states begin with the letter “N”?

Look for N:

- New Mexico
- New York
- New Hampshire
- New Jersey
- Nevada
- North Carolina
- North Dakota

Let’s list them:

1. New Mexico
2. New York
3. New Hampshire
4. New Jersey
5. Nevada
6. North Carolina
7. North Dakota

That’s 7 states.

Double-check: Any others? Nebraska? Starts with N! Oh no — we missed it!

Nebraska → starts with N.

So add that:

8. Nebraska

Any more?

New Mexico, New York, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska → that’s 8.

What about “New” something else? We have all four “New” states.

Is there a “North” other than Carolina and Dakota? No.

So total = 8.

Wait — let me recount from the actual grid in the image (since I can’t see it but based on standard 50-state list):

Standard list of N-states:

- Nebraska
- Nevada
- New Hampshire
- New Jersey
- New Mexico
- New York
- North Carolina
- North Dakota

Yes, 8.

But wait — in the user’s image layout, let’s simulate reading the columns:

First column: Alabama to Georgia → no N
Second: Hawaii to Maryland → no N
Third: Massachusetts to New Jersey → here: Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey → so Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey → 4
Fourth: New Mexico to South Carolina → New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota → 4 more? Wait, New Mexico and New York are also N.

Actually, better to just use full known list.

Final confirmed N-starting states:

1. Nebraska
2. Nevada
3. New Hampshire
4. New Jersey
5. New Mexico
6. New York
7. North Carolina
8. North Dakota

8 states

→ Answer: 8

*(Note: Earlier I thought 7, then remembered Nebraska — important to be careful!)*

Question 5: How many more states begin with “C” than with “T”?

First, count C-states:

From list:

- California
- Colorado
- Connecticut

Are there more?

Check:

California, Colorado, Connecticut → that’s 3.

Any others? Like “Carolina”? But those are North/South Carolina — start with N and S.

“C” only: California, Colorado, Connecticut → 3

Now T-states:

- Tennessee
- Texas

Also: ?

What about “Virginia”? No. “Washington”? No.

Tennessee, Texas → that’s 2.

Wait — is there another? Like “Utah”? Starts with U.

“Maine”? M.

So only Tennessee and Texas → 2.

But wait — what about “Territory”? Not a state.

Or “District of Columbia”? Not a state.

So T = 2.

Difference: 3 - 2 = 1

The example says: O-states: Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon → 3; T-states: Tennessee, Texas → 2; difference 3-2=1.

Same logic.

→ Answer: 1

Question 6: How many states [total] begin with “K” and “V”?

Count K-states:

- Kansas
- Kentucky

That’s 2.

V-states:

- Vermont
- Virginia

That’s 2.

Total: 2 + 2 = 4

Fill in blanks: ___ + ___ = ___

So: 2 + 2 = 4

→ Answer: 2 + 2 = 4

Question 7: How many more states begin with “I” than with “S”?

“Florida”? F.
“Delaware”? D.
“Connecticut”? C.
“Colorado”? C.
“California”? C.
“Arkansas”? A.

“Tennessee”? T.
“Texas”? T.
“Utah”? U.
“Vermont”? V.
“Virginia”? V.
“Washington”? W.
“West Virginia”? W.
“Wisconsin”? W.
“Wyoming”? W.

So S-states: South Carolina, South Dakota → that’s 2.

Wait — is there a third? What about “State” like “San...” no.

Or “Sierra”? Not a state.

So only 2 S-states.

I-states: Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa → 4.

Difference: 4 - 2 = 2

→ Answer: 2
