well, there are 57/y bananas
That means there must be only 57/y apples, so the result will be
57/y oranges, each having mass x+y
so, the mass of oranges will be
57(x+y)/y = 57(1+x/y) grams
That means there must be only 57/y apples, so the result will be
57/y oranges, each having mass x+y
so, the mass of oranges will be
57(x+y)/y = 57(1+x/y) grams
