Correct Answer: We are making efforts to reduce crowding in core city areas.


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

Active voice emphasises the doer of the action, while passive voice emphasises the receiver. To convert passive to active, we make the subject perform the action and rephrase the verb.

The structure of the active voice is, " Subject + are + present participle form of the verb + object + prepositional phrase".

Therefore, the correct answer is, " We are making efforts to reduce crowding in core city areas".
