    · Definition of Voice:
    · Active Voice: The subject of the sentence performs the action (e.g., The chef cooked the meal.)
    · Passive Voice: The subject of the sentence receives the action (e.g., The meal was cooked by the chef.)
    · Explanation:
    · The given sentence is in simple past tense.
    · In passive voice, was/were + past participle (V3) is used.
    · Grammatical rule used:
    · Active: Subject + V2 + Object
    · Passive: Object + was/were + V3 + (by + Subject)
    · Hindi Explanation: Past tense में passive voice बनाने के लिए object को subject बनाते हैं और क्रिया का तीसरा रूप “was/were + V3” प्रयोग करते हैं।
    · Meanings of all the other options:
    · (a) – ❌ Incorrect causative structure with "let"; not used for simple past passive.
    · (c) – ❌ Present tense; original sentence is in past.
    · (d) – ❌ Past perfect passive used incorrectly; not needed here.
