    77,640 shares

    Explanation:

    Stock split occur when new shares of a company are issued to existing shareholders in proportion to their current holdings.

    The share outstanding after the stock split is the addition of the existing shares and the new share issued. For this question, this can be calculated as follows:

    New shares to be issued = 64,700 : 5 = 12,940

    Number of outstanding shares after stock split = 64,700 + 12,940 = 77,640 shares
