Can superlatives refer to more than one thing in spanish?

For example .... "Those that I find the most important"

Is it... "los que me resultan los más importantes" ?

It just sounds quite awkward long face

In case it helps, a context for this sentence could be... "Hay un sinfín de razones que yo podría discutir pero me limito a señalar las que me resultan las mas importantes"

There's a vast number of reasons that i could discuss but I'm going to limit myself to talk about those that I find the most important

Yep, except you don't need the last "las" in there - I think that's what's confusing you.

"...las que me resultan mas imporantes."

You are already saying, "Those that I find..." when you say, "Las que me resultan." If you have another las in there, you're saying, "Those that I find those that are most important."

Make sense?
