Have you placed an order for a cake?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Has an order for a cake been placed by you?

Active form: Have you placed an order for a cake?

Rules for changing Active form to Passive from:

  • Simply exchange the places of the subject and the object. The subject should become the object and vice-versa while changing a sentence from Active to Passive voice or reverse.
  • Now, convert the main verb into its past participle or third form while converting from active to passive voice.
  • Use the word “by” before the subject in the passive sentence.

Now, the given sentence is in present perfect tense. When the active form is in "has/have + V3" form then the passive voice should follow the format "has/have + been + V3" form.

The passive form will be: Has an order for a cake been placed by you?

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Has an order for a cake been placed by you?
