    Solution

    In indirect speech, the quotation marks are removed. The reporting verb "said" changes to "asked" because it's a question. The pronoun "you" becomes "he" to reflect the change from direct to indirect speech. The verb "do you know" changes to "if he knew" as the direct speech is a question and the verb shifts from present to past tense.
