    12 apples - 7 apples = 5 apples.

    3,105 grams - 1,980 grams = 1125 grams.

    So 5 apples weight 1125 grams.

    1125 grams / 5 apples = 225 grams per apple.

    12 apples x 225 grams each + basket = 3105 grams

    2700 grams + basket = 3105 grams

    basket = 3105 - 2700

    basket = 405 grams
