A only

B only

C only

D only

Correct Answer:

A only

Explanation:

The original active voice sentence is "Who asked you to draw this?"

In the passive voice, the structure is generally formed as "Object + Auxiliary verb (is/are/was/were) + Past Participle + by + Subject."

The transformation is:

  • Object: "You"
  • Auxiliary verb: "were"
  • Past participle: "asked"
  • by
  • Subject: "whom"

Putting it all together: "By whom were you asked to draw this?"
