Can you please tell me which one is the correct passive form of the above sentence? I am confused!.
1. Why was the machine not given to him.?
2. Why wasn't given the machine to him.?
3. why wasn't he given it ?


1. Why was the machine not given to him.? (correct)
2. Why wasn't the machine given to him.? (now correct)or "Why was the machine not given to him?"
3. why wasn't he given the machine? (now correct) or "Why was he not given the machine?"
Hope this helps.
Regards!
