Sam owns 70 percent of the stock of Club Corporation. Unrelated individuals own the remaining 30 percent. For a stock redemption of Sam's stock to be treated as an exchange under the "substantially disproportionate" test, what percentage of Club stock must Sam own after the redemption?

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
