Calculation:
Let the amount of money made by the restaurant is x.
The proportion can be written as:
545110=x53
The ratios can be simplified further by doing cross product:
545110=x53
545(53)=110(x)
110x=28885
110x110=28885110
x=262.590

Step 1
545110=x53
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5830, the least common multiple of 110, 53
53×545=110x
Multiply 53 and 545 to get 28885.
28885=110x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
110x=28885
Divide both sides by 110.
x=28885110
Reduce the fraction 28885110 to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.
x=577722
