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.
