    C.

    Option (c) is the correct active voice of the given sentence.
    Active Voice- Active voice is a grammatical structure in which the subject of the sentence performs the action expressed by the verb.
    Passive Voice- Passive voice refers to a grammatical construction where the subject of a sentence undergoes an action rather than performing it. In passive voice sentences, the emphasis is on the recipient or object of the action.

    Object + auxiliary verb (was, were) + being + past participle + by + subject -> <- Subject + was, were + verb + ing + object.
