Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The main clause of the sentence is in the past tense ("I was sure"). According to the rules of sequence of tenses, when the principal clause is in the past tense, the future modal auxiliary in the subordinate clause must also change to its past equivalent. Therefore, "will" changes to would.
