The correct answer is: "Who can solve the problem?"

Key Points
  • In active voice, the subject performs the action.
  • Active Voice structure: Subject + verb + object + question mark
  • Passive voice structure: By + agent(subject) + modal verb + object + be + v3 + question mark
  • Therefore, we need to rephrase the sentence to make the subject (who) the doer of the action (solving the problem).
  • We use the modal verb "can" to indicate ability.
  • The sentence becomes: "Who can solve the problem?"

Thus, option 4 is the correct answer.
