You would weigh the same since gravity is the same on the moon as it is on Earth

You would weigh less since the gravity is less on the moon than on Earth

Answer 1

You would weigh less since the gravity is less on the moon than on Earth.

The gravity on the Moon is about one-sixth that of Earth, so your weight would decrease accordingly.
