is it "vous êtes qui" always?So if I'm asking to a group of people "Who are you?" the question would be the same as if I'd be asking that to a single person?? Is it vous êtes qui, no matter what? I was expecting it to be like "quis" or some plural there

Doing testsI like to do the test before studying my daily lessons, so that I only have to study what I get wrong. I like to challenge myself by answering when I am not certain. Why does kwiziq recommend not answering unless I am certain.
