Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Spanish (Spain)
- English (US)
@nevadan that- singular
the- can be used for plural nouns
( using “that” doesn’t make sense in the context of “ones.” you can also say “those” )

@sadgyopo can u please show me some examples sentence with that in singular and the in plural nouns and also with those
- English (US)
@nevadan Sí! Por supuesto.
Singular: Reattach that light.
Run to that sign.
Did you go to that store?
****”that” is more specific
Plural: Reattach the lights/Reattach those lights
Run to the signs/run to those signs
Did you go to those stores?
******”the” is not specific, “those” is specific ; both “the” y “those” can be used with plural nouns
