Answer:

120 milkshakes was sold that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are mistakes in the question, so below is the corrected one:

[tex]An\ ice\ cream\ shop\ sold\ 48\ vanilla\ milkshakes\ in\ a\ day,\ which\ was\ 40\%[/tex] [tex]of\ the\ total\ number\ of\ milkshakes\ sold\ that\ day.[/tex] [tex]What\ was\ the\ total\ number\ of\ milkshakes\ that\ the\ ice\ cream\ shop\ sold \ that \ day\ ?[/tex]

Now, to find the total number of milkshakes that the ice cream shop sold that day.

Let the total number of milkshakes sold that day be [tex]x.[/tex]

Number of vanilla milkshakes = 48.

Rate of vanilla milkshakes of the total number of milkshakes = 40%.

Now, putting an equation to get the total number of milkshakes:

[tex]40\%\ of\ x=48[/tex]

[tex]\frac{40}{100} \times x=48[/tex]

[tex]0.40\times x=48[/tex]

[tex]0.40x=48[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 0.40 we get:

[tex]x=120.[/tex]

Thus, the total number of milkshakes that the ice cream shop sold was 120.

Therefore, 120 milkshakes was sold that day.
