If I have

{x->2,y->3,z->19}

and make many calculations and finaly get

First/@FactorInteger[57]

{3, 19}

how can I apply the inversed rules to get

{y,z}

without using

/.{2->x,3->y,19->z}

$\begingroup$ Why wouldn't {3, 19} /. Map[Reverse, {x -> 2, y -> 3, z -> 19}] work? $\endgroup$ – J. M.'s technical difficulties♦ May 11 '17 at 0:48
