Answer 16

Got it. Its B: The probability that a customer ordered a milkshake made of vanilla ice cream. Since the milkshake column adds up to 65 orders, it's obvious thats what is being asked for. Since milkshakes ARE made out of ice cream, the best choice is to say that they ordered a milkshake made of that ice cream.
