1. In a booster club, [tex]\( \frac{1}{8} \)[/tex] of the 128 members are men. How many male members are in the club?

A. 1
B. 64
C. 112
D. 16



Answer :

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
