How can I answer turbotax request for specific states when I enter amount in box 11 exempt interest?

it is asking if it was from one state or multiple states and then it asks which states. there is no breakdown of states.

For a multistate muni bond fund, the brokerage firm should supply you with supplemental material showing the percentage of dividends paid broken down by state.  The only thing relevant is your home state (if it has an income tax) and 'More than One State'.  Figure out the income from your home state from that supplemental material - the rest is 'More than One State'.  If you live in CA, it is a bit more complicated.
