In October 2018, how many of the 475 National Delegates will be from Texas?

The correct answer reflects the representation of Texas within the context of the National FFA Organization’s delegate structure. Texas historically has a significant number of delegates due to its large membership base in the FFA. In 2018, the state had 71 National Delegates, which was an accurate reflection of its prominence and engagement within the organization at national events.

This representation is determined through the size of the membership and the state’s involvement in FFA activities, making it one of the largest states in terms of FFA participation. Thus, the figure of 71 delegates appropriately captures Texas's influence and active role in the National FFA Organization during that time, setting a precedent for how states can leverage their membership size to gain representation.

The other options indicate lower numbers that do not align with Texas's known position and membership count within FFA, reflecting an underestimation of the state's contribution to national activities.
