Explanation
Passive to active voice conversion:
Identify the Tense: The passive sentence "The house was painted..." uses the simple past tense (was/were + past participle).
Active Conversion: To convert it back to active voice, the object of the preposition ("them") becomes the subject ("They"), and the verb changes to the simple past form ("painted").
Active voice: They painted the house last month.
