  1. Shiva said to Ram, "I offer to do the assignment for you." is the direct speech form of "Shiva offered to do assignment for Ram."

  2. Shiva said to Ram, "I would do the assignment for you at a smaller price." is not a correct transformation as it changes the meaning of the original sentence.

  3. Shiva said to Ram, "I can do the assignment for you in a lesser time." is also not a correct transformation as it changes the meaning of the original sentence.

  4. Shiva said to Ram, "Let me do the assignment for you." is a correct transformation but it is more of a request than an offer. So, it slightly changes the meaning of the original sentence.
