Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- German
There is only a slight difference.
You can use "Das kommt darauf an." as a stand-alone sentence. (=That depends.)
If you say "Es hängt davon ab,... you have to add something: Es hängt davon ab, wie gut er ist.
If you use both sentences with a noun you can say :
Es hängt vom Wetter ab.
Es kommt auf das Wetter an. (=That depends on the weather.)
