First you need to divide shares by dollar amounts 405,000/34=11911.7 515,000/57=9035 663,000/67=9895 That would mean 57 and 67 changed, while 57 changed to 54 and 67 changed to 70 we then can find out So now we do 54*9035=487,890 and 70*9895=692,650 So that means The shares now are 11911.7$ 487,000$  692,650$
