Acitve to Passive and direct to Indirect speech.

Dear forum,

I have been asked to correct the following questions.

Quest 1: make a passive voice of an active voice of follows:

can anyone count the stars in the sky?

my finding is: The stars in the sky were counted by someone.

Quest-2 - make direct speech to indirect speech.

A passer by said"can you tell me the way to the station"?

my finding is: I was asked by a passer where 'an I tell him the way to the station.

I think the first one's correct. the second one: I was asked by a passer wether I can tell him the way to the station. But wait for on of those awesome native speakers, they'll explain it better
