    You need to show us how you tried to solve it.

    Something like this:-

    a) 64,000,000-----------------------64,000,000
    b) 2,400,000 times 5---------------12,000,000
    c) 42,000,000/7 6,000,000 * 5---- 30,000,000

    Total equivalent---------------------106,000,000

    Net Profit before tax------------------8,000,000
    Net Profit after tax 82.5% of N.P.---6,600,000

    You can take it from here!

    You now have the necessary ingredients.

    Divide the Net Profit by the Total Number
    Of Equivalent Shares.
