Final Answer:
19 pounds

Explanation:
We are told that 48 composition books weigh 16 pounds.
So, first find how much one book weighs:

16 pounds ÷ 48 books = $ \frac{16}{48} = \frac{1}{3} $ pound per book.

Now, the second batch has 57 books.
To find their total weight:
57 books × $ \frac{1}{3} $ pound/book = $ \frac{57}{3} = 19 $ pounds.

So, the second batch weighs 19 pounds.
