Change the following sentence into the Active form. The decision was made at the meeting.
Someone made the decision at the meeting.
The sentence 'The decision was made at the meeting' is passive, with 'was made' in the simple past and the doer of the action left unnamed.
To turn it active we must supply a subject for the missing agent, and when the agent is unknown the indefinite word 'Someone' is used.
The passive verb 'was made' becomes the plain active past 'made', keeping the same simple past tense.
The former subject 'the decision' now becomes the object of the active verb, and the phrase 'at the meeting' stays in place.
Option 2 'is made' and option 3 'makes' both wrongly move to the present tense, breaking tense agreement.
Option 4 'The meeting made the decision' invents a specific agent that the original never states, changing the meaning.
Hence the correct active form is Someone made the decision at the meeting.
