Martha made pancakes yesterday.

A.

Pancakes had been made by Martha yesterday.

B.

Pancakes were being made by Martha yesterday.

C.

Pancakes were made by Martha yesterday.

D.

Pancakes was made by Martha yesterday.

Correct option is C

The correct passive voice of the given sentence is Pancakes were made by Martha yesterday.
Explanation:

· Passive Voice: Object (Pancakes) + was/were + past participle (made) + by + subject (Martha).
Correct Sentence: Pancakes were made by Martha yesterday.
Why Other Options Are Incorrect:
· (a): "Had been made" changes the tense to past perfect, which is incorrect.
· (b): "Were being made" suggests ongoing action, which is incorrect here.
· (d): "Was made" is grammatically incorrect because "pancakes" is plural.
