This book contains Korean grammar. Try to understand it so that you can understand how to make a sentence...
The formal high respect ~습니다 is never used as a question. When asking a question in this form, instead of using ~습니다 you must use ~ㅂ/습니까. ~ㅂ니까 gets added directly to stems ending in a vowel, and ~습니까 gets added after a stem ending in a consonant. You can do this with all tenses:
방학 동안 집에 안 갔습니까? - You didn't go home during vacation? 그 사람을 만나고 싶습니까? - Do you want to meet that person? 내일 학교에 갈 겁니까? - Are you going to school tomorrow?
In the bathrooms of Korean schools, there are charts on the walls that the cleaning staff is supposed to check once per day. Written on these charts is a list of questions about the state of the bathroom.
While you will not understand most of the words on this list, notice that all of the sentences (except for the last one) has the ending ~ㅂ/습니까?

Some of the words provided in the 10 sentences above are fairly difficult. However, I would like to translate it for you:
1. Is the bathroom floor clean? 2. Is the sink clean? 3. Has the mirror been wiped clean? 4. Is there extra soap? 5. Is the toilet paper ready? 6. Is the bathroom's garbage can empty? 7. Are there no toilets that haven't been flushed? 8. Are any lights broken? 9. Is there any smell? 10. Are there any places, the doorknob, the faucet, etc that are broken?
There are other ways you can change a sentence to make it a question. ~ㅂ/습니까 is typically the most formal.
