Hi Abigail. This looks like homework to me, and you haven't explained why you couldn't resolve the answer. Basic questions that can be resolved through simple research are off-topic on this site. I recommend you read again your guidance or look up "passive tense" on the internet, and apply what you learn to the main verb in the sentence (promised).

Further to Chappo's point, why would you not challenge an exercise like that? Passive or active or any other way, "They promised him to wash the car" is simply wrong.
