where d is the distance to the galaxy in meters, and the flux was provided in the program. The galaxy I'm using has a value of $3.51 \cdot 10^{-14} \textrm{ Watt} /m^{2}$.  After finding the luminosity, I was able to determine the mass/luminosity ratio for galaxy $ESO286-G16$. The final mass and luminosity values for galaxy $ESO286-G16$ can be found in Table Tables  4 andTable  5. I followed the same procedure to find the rest of the galaxies mass' and luminosities.
