Answer:

151000 shares of common stock are outstanding.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of common stocks issued = 300000/3

= 100,000

common stock remaining = 250,000 - 100,000

= 150,000

Number of treasury stocks issued = 1200/12

= 1000

Number of common stocks outstanding = 150,000 + 1000

= 151000

Therefore, 151000 shares of common stock are outstanding.
