I knew I needed some information about weights on the moon and the earth.
It wasn't given and I didn't know it, so I googled
"how much does a person weighing 120 on earth weigh on the moon"
and I got this:
https://www.google.com/search?q=how+much+does+a+person+weighing+120+on+earth+weigh+on+the+moon&rlz=1C5CHFA_enCA690CA690&oq=how+much+does+a+person+weighing+120+on+earth+weigh+on+the+moon&aqs=chrome..69i57.1821j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
It then took me about 1 minute to get the answer to your question.
Repeat my process, let me know what your answer is.

gravitational acceleration on the Moon is ... 1.62 m/s^2
gravitational acceleration on the Earth is ... 9.81 m/s^2
a person's weight on the Moon or the Earth
... is proportional to the appropriate value
(Moon weight) / (Earth weight) = 1.62 / 9.81
