Correct Answer: Let the washing be hung on the clothesline.


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 passive voice in the case of the imperative sentence is: "Let + subject + be + past participle form of the main verb + prepositional phrase."

Therefore, the correct passive form would be: " Let the washing be hung on the clothesline."
