A story was told to us by her. -This is the answer.

About passive voice:

  • The given sentence is in active voice. We have to change it into passive voice.
  • When a sentence is changed into passive voice, the subject becomes passive/ inactive. So the subject 'she' becomes 'by her' and comes at last.
  • The object and the action done take importance. Thus the sentence begins either with the direct object (a story) or indirect object ('us', that changes into 'we' ).
  • The tense must be retained. The verb takes its past participle form.
  • The 'be' verb will precede the past participle according to its tense.  So the verb 'told' which is in simple past becomes 'was told'/ 'were told (for 'we')', accordingly.
  • Therefore the answer is: A story was told to us by her. (or) We were told a story by her.
