Correct Answer:

Why are you demanding peace?

Explanation:

The correct answer is OPTION 3- Why are you demanding peace?

The correct active form of the given sentence "Why is peace being demanded by you?" is Why are you demanding peace?

The passive voice of the sentence is "Why is peace being demanded by you?" This sentence is in the present progressive tense, which is used to describe an action that is happening now but is not finished. The passive voice of the sentence is formed by putting the subject of the active sentence after the verb "to be" and the present participle of the main verb. In this case, the subject of the active sentence is "peace" and the main verb is "demand." The past participle of "demand" is "demanded." So, the passive form of the sentence is "Why is peace being demanded by you?"

The active voice of the sentence is formed by putting the subject of the passive sentence before the verb and removing the word "by." In this case, the subject of the passive sentence is "you," and the verb is "demand." So, the active form of the sentence is "Why are you demanding peace?"
