Sarah operated her lemonade stand Monday through Friday over a two week period and made a total profit of 450 dollars. On hot days she sold cups of lemonade for a price that was 25 percent higher than the regular days. Each cup she sold had a total cost of 75 cents and Sarah did not incur any other costs. If every day she sold exactly 32 cups and 3 of the days were hot, then what was the price of 1 cup on a hot day? Choose the correct option:
A) $ 1.50 B) $ 1.88 C) $ 2.25 D) $ 2.50 E) $ 3.25

Rationale: 7 regular days - - > sales = 7 * 32 * x = 224 x ; 3 hot days - - > sales = 3 * 32 * ( 1.25 x ) = 120 x ; total sales = 224 x + 120 x = 344 x . total cost = 10 * 32 * 0.75 = 240 . profit = 344 x - 240 = 450 - - > x = 2 . 1.25 x = ~ 2.50 . answer : d .
Answer: D
