Correct Answer: The cake for the party was being brought by Sara.
Solution : The third option is correct.
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 voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive voice in the case of the past continuous tense is: "Singular object + was being + past participle form of the auxiliary verb + 'by' followed by the agent of action."
Therefore, the correct answer is: "Cake for the party was being brought by Sara . "
