Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The weight on the Moon can be calculated by multiplying the weight on Earth by the ratio of the gravity of the Moon to that of Earth. The gravity on Moon is about 1/6 of the gravity on Earth. So the weight on the Moon would be 1/6th of the weight on Earth. 
Weight on the Moon = (1/6) x 180 pounds = 30 pounds.
