Which of the following explains how to use partial quotients to find 832 ÷ 26?
A) Subtract 20 × 40 from 832 to get 32. Then subtract 1 × 26 from 32 to get 6.
Then add the partial quotients 20 + 1 + 6 to get 27. The quotient is 27.
B) Subtract 30 × 25 from 832 to get 82. Then subtract 3 × 26 from 82 to get 0.
Then add the partial quotients 30 + 3 to get 33. The quotient is 33.
C) Subtract 30 × 26 from 832 to get 52. Then subtract 2 × 26 from 52 to get 0.
Then add the partial quotients 30 + 2 to get 32. The quotient is 32.
D) Subtract 30 × 26 from 832 to get 52. Then subtract 4 × 13 from 52 to get 0.
Then add the partial quotients 30 + 4 to get 34. The quotient is 34.
