Subject-verb agreement with quantifiers and collective structures relies on the distinction between "notional agreement" and "grammatical agreement". Regarding the pair "A number of" vs. "The number of", select the alternative that correctly applies the standard agreement rules.

"A number of" refers to a singular group and takes a singular verb, while "The number of" refers to specific individuals and takes a plural verb.

Both "A number of" and "The number of" always take singular verbs to maintain consistency with the head noun "number".

"A number of" functions as a determiner meaning "many" and takes a plural verb, while "The number of" refers to a specific unit/statistic and takes a singular verb.

Both "A number of" and "The number of" always take plural verbs because they are followed by plural nouns.
