How many total members are there in the United States House of Representatives?

  1. 50.

  2. 100.

  3. 435.

  4. 538.

The correct answer is: 435.

There are a total of 435 members in the United States House of Representatives. Option A and B are incorrect because they refer to the number of senators in the United States Senate. Option D is incorrect because it refers to the total number of electoral college votes, not the number of members in the House of Representatives.
