Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Your idea (makes, make) sense to me.
A
makes
B
make
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -“That makes sense” is correct. “That” is singular and thus requires a singular verb: “makes.” If you were to use a plural subject, you would use “make.” For example: “Those points make sense to me.”

Detailed explanation-2: -“Does that make sense” is a phrase that creates uncertainty and doubt instead of being reassuring. It can imply that the other party is obliged to understand what was said. A better phrase to use is “How does that sound to you?”
