Answer 1

Between King Henry VIII and the fictional King Henry XLI, there would have been 33 kings named Henry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about the historical figure King Henry VIII and the subsequent kings named Henry up to the fictional King Henry XLI. To answer the question about how many kings named Henry were there after King Henry VIII up to King Henry XLI, we would perform a simple subtraction. King Henry XLI would be the 41st Henry, and we know that Henry VIII is the eighth. So, the number of kings named Henry between the two would be 41 (XLI) - 8 (VIII) = 33 kings.
