Correct Answer: Two masked intruders had robbed the agency.


Solution : The correct choice is the t hird option.

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 sentence in the case of the past perfect tense is: "Plural subject + had + been + past participle form of the verb + object."

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Two masked intruders had robbed the agency.
