the number of: ...的数量 ,...的数字,后面动词形式用单数,因为看的是number,它用的是单数,所以后面就用单数,但如果它用复数,则也用复数.
a nunmber of: 许多的
或者再详细一些:
a number of 意思是“许多...”,后接复数名词,谓语通常用复数:
A number of students were absent from the meeting.
许多学生没有到会。
the number of 意思是“.....的总数”,后接复数名词,但谓语要用单数:
The number of students absent from the meeting was surprising.
没有到会的学生人数很惊人。
所以由上可知,两者之后都可加复数名词,但谓语动词用法不一样!

the number of:......的数量,主语为the number
后面的谓语是单数(is,was);
The number of the students is over 800.
学生的数目超过800
a number of意思是许多,相当于many,后面的谓语用复数(are,were)
A number of students have been to Shangdong
许多学生都去过山东

the number of: ...的数量
a nunmber of: 一些

the number of为....的数量,后面的谓语是单数(is,was);
a number of为许多,相当于many的意思,后面的谓语用复数(are,were)
如:The number of students in our class is 25.我班的学生人数是25人.
A number of students are playing on the playground.许多学生正在操场上玩.
