This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Conjugate poder in the preterite tense in Spanish (El Pretérito Indefinido) "

Hola Brian
Ustedes is you plural formal and it is conjugated as the "they" form of the verb, therefore you need:
ustedes pudieron
Pudisteis is the conjugation for the other you plural, informal, in Spanish: vosotros (used in European Spanish):
vosotros pudisteis
Saludos

Tú is you singular which is pudiste
You plural informal is pudisteis
Ustedes is you plural formal so it would be pudieron
