    You must understand clearly that this is the last time I shall allow it.
    Solutions

    This is a complex sentence and is in active voice. We need to convert it into passive voice. The structures for active/passive voices for modal verbs are:
    For the first part:-
    Active Voice :- Subject + modal verb + verb (Ist form) + object.....
    Passive Voice :- Object + modal verb + be + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject....
    For second part:-
    Active Voice :- Subject + will/shall + verb (Ist form) + object....
    Passive Voice :- Object+ will/shall + be + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject.....
    Thus, after applying both rules, the passive voice of the given sentence is: It must be understood clearly by you that this is the last time it will be allowed by me.
    Hence, option C is the correct answer.
