We are asked to determine the simulated demand for each of the 3 days using the provided random numbers [35, 88, 10].

Option analysis:
- Option A: [2, 2, 1]
  This would assign day 1 a demand of 2, day 2 a demand of 2, and day 3 a demand of 1. Given the random numbers, day 2 is 88, which would typically map to a higher demand category than 2 if the scheme uses increasing thresholds. Thus this option may understate the demand for day 2 compared to what the numbers suggest.
- Option B: [2, 3, 2]
  Here day 1 is 2, day 2 is 3, and day 3 is 2. This pattern assigns the largest demand to day 2 (the 88 value), which aligns with a higher demand category for a large random number. However, day 3 would be 10, and mapping 10 to a 2 would require a mid-range threshold that might not fit if 10 is near the lower end of the scale.
- Option C: [2, 3, 1]
  This option sets day 1 to 2 (for the 35 value), day 2 to 3 (for the 88 value), and day 3 to 1 (for the 10 value). This aligns with a plausible three-tier mapping where moderate numbers yield mid-range demand, a high number yields the highest demand, and a very small number yields the lowest demand. The day 1 value 35 sits between the very small and very large ranges, producing 2; day 2 value 88 clearly falls into the top tier, producing 3; day 3 value 10 is near the lower end, producing 1. This matches a straightforward increasing-threshold scheme.
- Option D: [3, 3, 1]
  Here day 1 would have 3 despite 35 being a relatively modest value, which seems inconsistent with a monotonic mapping where larger random numbers produce equal or higher demand. It overestimates day 1’s demand compared to the others and contradicts the idea that 35 should map to a mid or lower tier rather than the top tier.

Synthesis across options:
- The day-by-day mapping should typically assign increasing demand with larger random numbers, and a small number like 10 should map to a low demand. Between the options, Option C best reflects a monotone and intuitive mapping for the trio [35, 88, 10], giving mid demand for 35, high demand for 88, and low demand for 10.
- Options A and D misalign with the expected relationship between the random numbers and the demand levels, either by undercounting day 2 or by overcounting day 1. Option B also assigns day 3 a mid-level demand, which is less consistent with the small value of 10 compared to a clear low threshold.

In summary, considering a straightforward three-tier mapping where larger numbers produce higher demand and very small numbers produce the lowest demand, Option C ([2, 3, 1]) best fits the given random numbers [35, 88, 10].
