Complete the sentence with "used to" or "use to"
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

b) use to

Explanation:

This is because at the beginning of the sentence there is already a past tense "did" so the verb after that would have to be in base form which would be "use to". It's a rule so I can't really explain much.
