One question on this, apologies if it has been asked before but I couldn't find any related threads. Which one of the below sentences would you consider correct?

A) Does Rick and the other guys know that?
B) Do Rick and the other guys know that?


Broadly speaking - with multiple subjects, would you conjugate do to the singular or plural form? Particularly, for the above example: 1 singular subject + 1 plural subject.

Many thanks,

Luca

If it helps, just ask: "Do they?"
