Hello. Partitive articles must agree with the gender and the number of the words they refer to. So the first thing to understand in each clause is the gender/number of the word. Then you can complete the clauses with the partitive articles as follows:

GENDER SINGULAR PLURAL
Feminine della delle
Feminine (before vowel) dell' delle
Masculine del dei
Masculine (before vowel) dell' degli
Masculine (before the letters "z", "x + consonant", "gn") dello degli
