While changing a sentence in the passive voice to one in the active voice, the following points are to be kept in mind-

1. Usually in sentences that are in passive voice, 'by' is added. It should be removed.
2. The subject needs to be mentioned.
3. In certain cases in a sentence in passive voice, the subject is omitted as it can be easily guessed. In that case, the subject should be assumed.
4. Lastly, the intended meaning of the sentence should not be changed.

• Why was the garden wall broken by her?
• Unsolicited advice should not be given.
• We are surprised to see that the door has been painted by them.

While changing a sentence in the active voice to one in the passive voice, the following are to be kept in mind-

1. There is usually an addition of the word 'by' when a sentence is in the passive voice.
2. It is usually placed towards the end of the sentence, before the subject.
3. However, this can be avoided only when the subject can be easily assumed or guessed.
4. The meaning of the sentence should be left untouched.
