To change an active voice sentence into passive voice, follow these steps:

1. Identify the object, verb, and subject in the active sentence:

   • Active: She (subject) wrote (verb) a letter (object).

2. Move the object to the subject position:

   • Passive: A letter …

3. Change the verb to the correct passive form:

   • The verb "wrote" (past simple) becomes "was written" (past simple passive: was + past participle).

4. Add "by + agent" (optional):

   • A letter was written by her.
