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

50.
100.
435.
538.

The correct answer is: 435.

The House of Representatives consists of a total of 435 members, not 50 or 100 or 538. Option A is incorrect because 50 is the number of states in the United States, not the number of representatives in the House. Option B is incorrect because 100 is the number of members in the United States Senate, not the House of Representatives. Option D is incorrect because 538 is the total number of electors in the electoral college, not the House of Representatives. Therefore, the correct answer is C, which is the specific number of members in the House of Representatives.
