Basic rules to be followed for Active/Passive conversions are: 1. The object of the active verb becomes the subject of the passive verb. 2. The finite form of the verb is changed (to be+ past participle). 3. The subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence (or is dropped). |
Here the given sentence is in Present Perfect Tense. Active:- Subject + Has/have + past participle + object. Passive:- Subject + Has/have + been + past participle + object. Therefore, the correct sentence will be: 'Have your outstanding bills been paid?' Hence, the chosen option is correct. |
