is it A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe it's B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think A is right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A makes the most science to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm. an explanation would be great @EwwwAlgebra

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I like to know all sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Active voice would be: camping families find each other away from the constant interruptions of life. The subject is 'families' the verb is 'find'.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm looking for passive voice.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so A is right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But the words are the same, the order has just been changed. I'd go with A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya, I'm changing the sentence to where it's subject then verb. The sentence will be the same, just in a different order. Lee probably knows more than me though. My English teacher was refusing to accept any sentences in passive voice, so I figured I had the conversions from pass. to act. down pat lol
