Algebraic conditions on the continuity of the components of the metric tensor are employed to get an approximate metric in four limiting forms relevant to a condensation in an expanding Einstein/de Sitter substratum. The metric of the condensation is in general spherically-symmetric, nonstatic and asymptotically flat, passing over into the usual Friedmann solution at large distances and late times. The line-element derived supersedes an earlier incorrect formulation of the problem by Einstein and Straus. The metric is applicable in particular to clusters of galaxies, wich cannot avoid being involved in the expansion of the Universe for the density-distributions relevant to average loose clusters as presently observed. It is likely that all clusters, including compact ones, are in a state of dynamical evolution, a conclusion which may remove the missing mass problem. The results found agree, in this respect, with recent work by Noerdlinger and Petrosian, and give effective Hubble parmeters for systems in an expanding substratum.
