Here is the completed State Capital Matching worksheet with the correct letter for each state’s capital:

---

AlabamaM. Springfield *(Correction: Alabama → M. Montgomery)*
Wait — let’s double-check the options and match correctly.

Actually, looking at the list:

The options are labeled A–Y. Let’s match each state to its correct capital from the given choices.

Correct Matching:

1. AlabamaD. Montgomery
2. AlaskaI. Juneau
3. ArizonaO. Phoenix
4. ArkansasB. Little Rock
5. CaliforniaH. Sacramento
6. ColoradoG. Denver
7. ConnecticutC. Hartford
8. DelawareT. Dover
9. FloridaA. Tallahassee
10. GeorgiaP. Atlanta
11. HawaiiQ. Honolulu
12. IdahoK. Boise
13. IllinoisM. Springfield
14. IndianaY. Indianapolis
15. IowaR. Des Moines
16. KansasE. Topeka
17. KentuckyL. Frankfort
18. LouisianaF. Baton Rouge
19. MaineS. Lansing *(Correction: Maine → S. Augusta)*
Wait — S. Lansing is Michigan’s capital. That’s a mistake in the key? Let’s check again.

Looking carefully at the options:

- N. Augusta — that’s Georgia’s capital? No — Georgia is Atlanta (P).
Actually, Augusta is the capital of Maine? No — Maine’s capital is Augusta.

But in the options, we have:

> N. Augusta
> S. Lansing

So:

MaineN. Augusta
MichiganS. Lansing

Continuing:

20. MarylandX. Annapolis
21. MassachusettsW. Boston
22. MichiganS. Lansing
23. MinnesotaV. Saint Paul
24. MississippiJ. Jefferson City — Wait, Jefferson City is Missouri’s capital.

Let’s fix this:

MissouriJ. Jefferson City
MississippiU. Jackson

And finally:

25. MissouriJ. Jefferson City
