    a. 3,425,000 shares

    b. 22.60%

    Explanation:

    The calculations are presented below:

    a. The number of shares sold is shown below:

    = Additional amount : share worth value

    = 1,370,000 : $0.40

    = 3,425,000 shares

    b. The fraction would be

    = Number of shares purchased : Total number of shares after considering the additional amount

    = 1,000,000 : 4,425,000

    = 22.60%

    The total number of shares would be

    = 1,000,000 + 3,425,000

    = 4,425,000
