Correct Answer: Banners were being prepared by them with different designs for the sports meet.
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive voice in the past continuous tense is: Object + were + being + past participle form of the main verb + by + agent of action + prepositional phrase.
Therefore, the sentence in the passive voice is: Banners were being prepared by them with different designs for the sports meet.
