Answer:

2% is Joan's ownership percentage after the split

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

A small company has 10,000 shares. Joan owns 200 of these shares.

The company decides to split its shares.

⇒Total company shares = 10,000

and Joan's share = 200

We have to find Joan's ownership percentage after the split.

[tex]\text{Joan's ownership percentage} = \frac{\text{Joan owns share}}{\text{Total company shares}} \times 100[/tex]

then;

[tex]\text{Joan's ownership percentage} = \frac{200}{10000} \times 100 =  2 \%[/tex]

Therefore, 2% is Joan's ownership percentage after the split
