What is the P/E ratio and P/B ratio

There are two situations for changes in the number of shares: one is the change in the number of shares with capital changes; the other is the number of shares with unchanged capital change. When the capital changes, the average number of shares should be calculated; when the capital does not change, the average number of returns is not calculated.
