Answer:

He said that he had eaten his lunch.

Explanation:

Tip(when changing from direct to indirect always change the present form of verb to the past form like I have done also remember to add that in case of exclamations put words like exclaimed. For imperative put words like ordered, requested, etc. Also remember to not put the double inverted commas. If the sentence is in 1st person change it into 3rd person)

Hope it helps you
