    44,167.67 shares

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Number of shares of stock outstanding = 265,000

    Sale value per share of stock = $76

    Number of seat for election = 5

    So by considering the above information, the number of shares needed by using the cumulative voting is

    = {shares outstanding : (number of seats + 1) + 1}

    = { (265,000 shares : (5 + 1) + 1}

    = 44,167.67 shares
