Question

Which of the following explains how to use partial quotients to find 832 ÷ 26 ?

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Subtract 30 × 26 from 832 to get 52. Then subtract 2 x 26 from 52 to get 0.

Then add the partial quotients 30 + 2 to get 32. The quotient is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached shows the use of partial quotients to create the next dividend in the long division process. Each quotient digit is multiplied by the divisor and that product is subtracted from the dividend to create the next dividend. Then the process is repeated.

___

Here, the correct answer choice is the only one that has the correct quotient.
