I want to know the answer to the following question:
In what year did Royal Dutch Shell make a bid to purchase approximately 30% of Shell Oil Company's shares?
All the background I'm provided with is that "However, in 1984, Royal Dutch Shell made a bid to purchase those shares of Shell Oil Company it did not own (around 30%) and despite opposition from some minority shareholders, which led to a court case, Shell completed the buyout for a sum of $5.7 billion.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
