If you have data sources in multiple regions, create a Recovery Services vault for each region.
The File Shares and VMs are located in three Regions: West US, East US, Central US.

A backup policy is scoped to a vault. For each vault we need one backup policy for File Shares and one backup policy for VM.

To back up the file shares and virtual machines. one vault per region. 3 vaults for 3 regions File shares: 3 region. VMs: 3 region. so... vault = 3 backup policies = 3FS + 3VM = 6

Microsoft needs to evaluate their questions and answers!! This is inappropriate and unfair to all of us here. It seems there might be a discrepancy between the information provided in the question and the answer. If the question does not specify that the file shares and virtual machines (VMs) are located in multiple regions, but the answer indicates that you should create a Recovery Services vault for each region due to the presence of data sources in West US, East US, and Central US, then it’s possible that part of the question is missing or implied. In practice, it’s important to have all the necessary information to make an informed decision about the configuration of Recovery Services vaults. Azure best practices recommend creating a Recovery Services vault in each region where your data sources are located to ensure compliance with data residency regulations and to optimize for network latency.

If the question in your test or exam does not include the detail about the regions, you might want to clarify this with the instructor or the examination body to ensure you have the complete information required to answer the question correctly. It’s essential to have all relevant details when planning for backup and recovery in a cloud environment.

It would be 3 and 3. There are 3 regions, so 3 vaults. By default, each vault will have a default policy for VM and SQL. So you don't need to create policy for VM. Only for file share is enough. So 3.

Box1 agree 1 per region so 3; See; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-create-recovery-services-vault "If you have data sources in multiple regions, create a Recovery Services vault for each region. Create the vault in the first location before you create a vault in another location." Box 2: Not sure that 6 is correct as per; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-architecture#backup-policy-essentials "A policy can be assigned to many resources. An Azure VM backup policy can be used to protect many Azure VMs" I'm going to say 3 for Box 2, because it looks like you can add the same policy to multiple items; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-files?tabs=backup-center https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-vms-first-look-arm#back-up-from-azure-vm-settings
