Question

Voice change : It is time to start the machine

Answer 1

It is the time for the machine to be started.

Answer 2

It is time for the machine to be started.

The given sentence is in an active voice.

We have to change it into passive voice.

Verbs can be either active or passive.

In an active voice, the subject and verb relationship are simple and straightforward.

It is the subject which is the do-er. In a passive voice, the subject of a sentence is not the doer.

Passive voice is usually used when an action is a focus and not the subject.

It is not important who performs the action.
