Question

milkshakes sold that day. What was the total number of milkshakes that the ice creamAn ice cream shop sold 48 vanilla milkshakes in a day, which was 40% of the total of shop sold that day?

Answer 1

120 milkshakes was sold that day.

Explanation:

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

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

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
`x.`

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:

`40\%\ of\ x=48`

`(40)/(100) * x=48`

`0.40* x=48`

`0.40x=48`

Dividing both sides by 0.40 we get:

`x=120.`

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

Therefore, 120 milkshakes was sold that day.
