Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

passive voice :- A race was ran by those/the boys

Answer 2

Answer:

The race is run by the boys

Explanation:

To change a sentence from active voice to passive voice, all you have to do is switch the object and the subject, so that the object becomes the subject and vice versa.

The general format for a sentence in active voice is this:

“The subject acts upon the object.”

The general format for a sentence in passive voice in relation to the sentence when it is in active voice is this:

“The object is acted upon by the subject.”

In the sentence given in this question, the boys is the subject, and race is the object. So if we change the sentence so that the race is being acted upon by the boys, then we get the following sentence:

“The race is run by the boys.”  

(Since they is a pronoun in subjective form, we must change it to its objective form, them, in order to make it the object of the sentence.)
