We added up the money and found that it was correct
Answer: A
Correct answer: The money was added up and found to be correct
Two active verbs share the subject we, so both become passive and the agent by us can be dropped as unimportant.
- we added up the money → the money was added up
- found that it was correct → [was] found to be correct
The clause that it was correct is compressed to the infinitive to be correct, which is the normal pattern after a passive found.
