Not sure why delas and not deles. Both answers should be permitted without further context.

Good catch, and you're right - this is fixed now. The prompt was just "Their laughter is contagious!", and English "their" carries no gender, so nothing in the exercise told you the people laughing were women. Both "delas" and "deles" are accepted there from now on (and in five other pronoun exercises with the same problem we've found when reviewing).
