I know that each state has two U.S. Senators, but how do they decide how many state Senators there are?

One is at State level, and the other is at Federal level.
State senators will depend on the state and how they've come up with legislative districts.

A U.S. Senator is one of two senators who represents their whole state in the US Senate, one of the two branches of Congress.
A State Senator represents a local district in the State Legislature of that particular state.

Each state decides how many state senators go to the state's legislature in the state's capitol. The Constitution determines that only 2 senators (and how ever many representatives based on population) from each state go to Washington for the national legislature.

Well, every state has 2 that represent the state in US Congress in DC. Then every state has their own Senate and House (except Nebraska, they are unicameral), and your district elects Senate representatives for your state's senate.

uh one is a senator for a state and the other is a senator for the entire country. Are you aware that there is basically a different government for each state, as well as a separate governing body for the federal government?
