Here's why:
* Pronoun Agreement: The pronoun "it" refers to the envelope, but the sentence starts with "envelopes" (plural). This creates a subject-verb agreement error.
* Ambiguity: It's not clear if the sentence is referring to one specific envelope or all of them.
Here are some ways to correct the sentence:
* Specific Envelope: "Open the envelope and then reseal it."
* Multiple Envelopes: "Open the envelopes and then reseal them."
* General Instruction: "Open the envelope and reseal it afterwards."
Choose the option that best fits the intended meaning.
