    Can you run a 100 metre race?
    Question

    Can you run a 100 metre race?

    A.

    If you can run a 100 metre race.

    B.

    Can a 100 metre race be run.

    C.

    Can a 100 metre race be run by you?

    D.

    A 100 metre race can be run by you?

    Correct option is C

    In changing a question to passive, the modal ("can") remains first: "Can + object + be + past participle + by + subject?"

    Information Booster

    Questions in passive voice:
    Active: Can + subject + base verb + object?
    Passive: Can + object + be + past participle + by + subject?
    Focus shifts to whether the action can be done to the object.

    Additional Knowledge

    Option 1 is not a question at all.

    Option 2 lacks the agent (by you) and is incomplete.

    Option 4 is not in question form; word order is incorrect for interrogation.
