Amanda needs to make a profit of at least $50 per day.
Her expenses are $10.75 per day.
So, she needs to make a profit of $60.75 per day ($10.75 expenses + $50 profit).
Amanda sells lemonade for $1.50 per cup.
To find out how many cups she needs to sell to make $60.75 profit, we divide $60.75 by $1.50:
$60.75 / $1.50 ≈ 40.5
Since Amanda cannot sell a fraction of a cup, she needs to round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, Amanda needs to sell at least 41 cups of lemonade each day to make $50 in profit.
