The given sentence is of ‘Active voice’.
The sentence is said to be in active voice when `Subject’ is active & does something.
Now we have to convert it into passive voice.
Passive voice – If the sentence is in passive form, the subject remains inactive. It does
nothing, but allows something to be done.
In the passive form, the object of the verb in Active voice becomes the subject of the
verb in the Passive voice. ‘By’ is introduced as now the subject receives the action by the
object.
The given sentence is in the simple present tense.
Structure in active voice – Subject + Do/does+ not + V1 + Object.
Structure in passive voice – Object + is/am/are+ not + V3+ by Subject.
The sentence thus formed is – Food is not cooked by Sharmila.
