Qué compramos o cuál compramos?

I am still having trouble which one to use (que and cual). In every source it says you should use que for explanations and definitions and cual for mostly preferences and expect a simple answer. But how can I differentiate what is a simple anwer and what is an explanation. For example, ........compramos a papá para el día del padre? , should I use que or cual in this sentence? In english, it is like what do we buy for dad's birthday but the answer could be simple as well as a huge explanation. Thank you for your answer :)

    You can use '' Cuál '' ( Which ) when you have different options and you need to choose one , and '' Que'' (What )when you need information about something.
