Question about singular vs. plural

I wrote "las velas son tambien ..." but the correction answer was "la velas tambien son ...". Upon re-listening to the recording various times, I feel pretty certain the readers say "las velas"; moreover it is following by "son". Did I hear wrong? What is the reason for the use of "la" and not "las" with "velas"?

Hola Pati

That should have been showing the plural: las velas - there was a typo.

It's been corrected.

Gracias y saludos
