While shopping, Edna noticed that three different pancake mixes indicated that they were the best value for the price. She also noticed that all three packages cost the same amount. She wanted to know how they could all be the best value if they all cost the same. So, she decided to do a comparison of the mixes.

Package A claims it makes 10 pancakes with a diameter of 6 inches.

Package B claims it makes 25 pancakes with a radius of 2 inches.

Package C claims it makes 50 pancakes with a circumference of 6.28 inches.
