Answer 2

He asked Mohan about how much money he wanted.

• The actual words spoken by the speaker are represented in a direct speech.
• To make a direct speech into an indirect speech, reported verbs in the simple past tense are used.
• The reporting word employed here is "asked."
• When converting a phrase to direct speech, we should use the reporting verb appropriate for the tense, delete conjunctions such as "if", "that", etc., and add punctuation, a question mark, or a full-stop if required, as well as a comma before the actual statement whereas the opposite is done to convert a phrase to indirect speech.
