The question is on how many ways can a cooking club with 12 members select a president and a vice president among themselves. First, 12 of them are selecting a president and they can do it in 12 different ways, then, 11 of them are selecting a vice president and they can do it in 11 different ways. When we multiply 12*11 we get that the overall number of ways they can select a president and a vice president is 132. So the correct answer is D. 132.
