The job may be done by you.

A.

You might do the job.

B.

You may be doing the job.

C.

D.

You might have done the job.

Correct option is C


Active Voice- It denotes that the noun or pronoun that acts as the subject in the sentence is the doer of the action. In other words, the subject performs the action or acts upon the verb.
Passive Voice- represents that the subject is one acted upon by the action or verb in the sentence. It can also be said that the passive voice indicates that the subject in the sentence is no longer active but passive.
While changing passive voice into active voice following rules are followed:
· Verb Form: The passive structure "may be done" is converted into the active form "may do."
· Modal Verb: The modal verb "may" remains the same in both the active and passive forms.
· Subject-Object Reversal: In the active voice, "you" becomes the subject, and "the job" becomes the object.
Thus, the correct active voice for the sentence "The job may be done by you" is (c) "You may do the job."
Example:
· Passive: "The task may be completed by the team."
· Active: "The team may complete the task."
