The statement that is written in the passive voice is "It was said that the store had a good sale," as stated in the second option and explained below.

<h3>What is passive voice?</h3>

A sentence is written in the passive voice when the subject is not the one performing the action expressed by the verb. The structure of the passive voice is:

Subject + to be + main verb in the past participle

Compare the two sentences below to better understand the use of passive voice:

I took the cat to the vet. --> Active voice. The subject "I" performs the action of taking the cat.

The cat was taken to the vet by me. --> Passive voice. The subject "cat" receives the action of being taken to the vet.

That is why the correct answer for this question is the second option. We have a passive structure at the beginning of the sentence, "It was said."
