Step1: Recall the information
There is one U.S. attorney for each judicial district, except Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands where one serves both.
Step2: Consider the number of judicial districts
There are 94 federal judicial districts in the United States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. Since Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands share 1 U.S. - attorney instead of having 2 separate ones.
The number of U.S. attorneys is 93 + 1=93.
