The grammar rule (be + V3, same tense): Make the object the new subject; the doer goes after “by”. Use “be” in the same tense: is / are (present), was / were (past), will be (future), is being (continuous), has been / have been (perfect). Add the past participle (V3): written, eaten, made. Match is / are, was / were to the new subject.
