Let's solve the problem step-by-step:
1. We are given that the total number of members in the booster club is 128.
2. We know that [tex]\(\frac{1}{8}\)[/tex] of the members are men.
To find the number of male members, we need to calculate [tex]\(\frac{1}{8}\)[/tex] of the total number of members:
3. Multiply the total number of members by [tex]\(\frac{1}{8}\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
\frac{1}{8} \times 128 = 16
\][/tex]
So, the number of male members in the club is 16.
Therefore, the best answer is:
D. 16
