When the reporting verb is in the past, the tense moves back: "will help" becomes "would help" and "are" becomes "was" or "were". The pronouns change: "I" becomes "she" and "you" becomes "he" or "him". The words "this" and "tomorrow" become "that" and "the next day" or "the following day". "Mary told her brother that she would help him with that project the next day if he was free." meets all these rules. "Mary said to her brother that she would help him with that project the following day if he were free." is also correct, because "said to" is the right pattern and "were" is an acceptable form in the conditional clause. "Mary told to her brother that she will help him with this project tomorrow if he is free." is wrong: "told" takes no "to", and the tenses and time words are not changed. "Mary said her brother that she would help him with that project the next day if he was free." is wrong: "said" needs "to" before the listener. "Mary told her brother that she would help him with that project the day before if he was free." is wrong: "the day before" refers to the past, not the future. "Mary told her brother that she would help you with the project the next day if you were free." is wrong: the pronoun "you" is not changed to "him" or "he".
