Best Answer

The four states that are part of the Ring of Fire are Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and California. The Ring of Fire is, in general, where the Pacific Plate is subducting underneath some other plate. The result is a line of volcanoes along the subduction boundary. Hawaii, which was mentioned as an answer, is not part of the Ring of Fire because its volcanoes were formed by a hot spot.
