- A. Belong
- B. Belonging

Explanation: The correct answer is "Some of the books on the table belong to me." The subject of the sentence is "some of the books", which is plural. Therefore, the verb "belong" must also be plural. The singular forms "belongs", "belonging", and "was belong" are not grammatically correct in this sentence. Here is a breakdown of the sentence: "Some" is a quantifier that means "a part of". "The books" is the subject of the sentence. It is plural because it refers to more than one book. "On the table" is a prepositional phrase that tells where the books are located. "To me" is a prepositional phrase that tells who the books belong to. "Belong" is the verb of the sentence. It is plural because the subject is plural. The complete sentence is "Some of the books on the table belong to me." This sentence is grammatically correct because the subject and verb agree in number.
Correct answer: Belong
