Answer:the total number of milkshake that the ice cream shop sold that day is 120

Explanation:

Let x represent the total number of

vanilla milkshakes that the ice cream shop sold that day.

The ice cream shop sold 48 vanilla milkshakes in a day which is 40% of the total number of milkshake sold that day. It means that

40/100 × x = 48

0.4 × x = 48

0.4x = 48

x = 48/0.4 = 120
