Yeah it's confusing:

Meta is now facing multiple lawsuits on this issue in several districts. Attorneys general from 33 states filed a federal suit against Meta in the Northern District of California, while nine additional attorneys general are filing in their own states

So 33 federal, and 9 additional at the state level. 42.

(42's always the answer, and in this case we actually know the question too.)
