The given sentence is in interrogative form.
Following steps must be followed to convert the given active form of the sentence into its passive form:
- Remember, whenever an active voice sentence starts with a helping verb, as in this case. Its counter passive voice should also start with a helping verb.
- Do not forget to change the places and the form of both the subject and the object.
- Always preceed the agent with a 'by'. In this case, it should be 'by Rani'.
