    Answer:Partial quotients Paloma should show in her work are B) 30,10,1.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given : Paloma dividing 1292 (dividend) by 31 (divisor) using partial quotients.

    so the easy multiples of 31 are as 31*2=62,31*3=93,31*10=310 ... so on

    if she uses 30 as her first partial quotient then 31*30=930, so after subtracting 930 from 1292 we get 362 as new dividend then 31*10=310 is the easiest multiple of 31 so that 362-310=52 as new dividend, then 31*1=31 subtracting this from 52 gives 52-31=21 which is the remainder.

    Therefore, Partial quotients Paloma should show in her work are 30,10 and 1.
