Correct Answer: You and your friends ought not to make so much noise.
Solution : The second option is the correct choice.
Active voice is the voice where the subject performs the action. When transforming the sentence from the passive voice to the active voice, the subject and the object get inverted. Thus, "you and your friends" becomes the subject.
The structure of the active sentence is: " Subject + modal verb + negation + main verb in infinitive form + object."
Therefore, the sentence in the active voice is: You and your friends ought not to make so much noise.
