When the question asked is "Do you (singular) ..."/Did you.....(singular) The answer is given in the (yo) form.
When the question asked is "Do you(plural)..."/Did you(plural).....The answer is given in the (nosotros) form.
Look at the reflexive conjugations of cepillarse for (yo).
| Present | Preterit | Imperfect | Conditional | Future |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| me cepillo | me cepillé | me cepillaba | me cepillaría | me cepillaré |
Look at the reflexive conjugations of ducharse for (nosotros).
| Present | Preterit | Imperfect | Conditional | Future |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| nos duchamos | nos duchamos | nos duchábamos | nos ducharíamos | nos ducharemos |
The correct answers are in bold.
In the first sentence, look at the tense of the question. Then look at your answer.
In the second sentence, look at the grammatical person of the question. Again, then, look at your answer!
¿Te cepillaste los dientes después de comer? Si, me cepillo los dientes después de comer.
This question is in past, otherwise it would be: ¿Te cepillas los dientes después de comer? Change the verb in your answer.
¿Se duchan ustedes antes de nadar en la piscina? Sí, me ducho ustedes antes de nadar en la piscina,
You use "me" when you're talking about yourself. In this case, the question is for "ustedes" (y'all). You must answer as "nosotros" (we)
I think this might help you with this one.
