Correct Answer: Pranav's house was painted by him.


Solution : The correct choice is the second 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 sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the sentence in the passive voice in the case of the simple past tense is: "Singular object + was + past participle of the main verb + by followed by the agent of the action."

Therefore, the sentence in the passive voice is: Pranav's house was painted by him.
