It's the correct passive equivalent. 'True' is not the appropriate word.

Thanks for reply.

A pair of trousers was bought from the market. Is it correct?

Why I can't use " were" in above sentence?

Was each of the children given an apple? Is it correct?

Why I can't use " were" in above sentence?

Both "pair" and "each" take the singular form of the verb.
