A store finds out that 5 out of every 9 customers prefer new extra crunch peanut butter. If the store sells 90,000 jars or regular peanut butter, how many jars of new x crunch should it produce ,and how many of regular should it produce ? Have no idea how to do this. please help

Cross multiply and solve for x.

5/4 = x/90,000
