to put into an equation?

Hi! everyone.
Could you make me understand this sentence? I can not make sense out of this sentence and what does "putting something into an equation" mean?
There isn't enough information available to put into an equation that would have any legitimate certainty of providing an answer to this question...
Thanks!

It's a very wordy and awkward sentence. I suggest eg There isn't enough information available to answer this question.

Thanks! Clive.
But, is "putting something into an equation" unnatural phrase? If it isn't, what does it mean?

Mary has some apples and Susan has some apples.

How many apples all together do Mary and Susan have?
