A rock that weighed 1.2 pounds on the moon weighed 7.06 pounds on Earth. About how much would an astronaut who weighs 174 pounds on Earth weigh on the moon?

weight on moon = 1/6 weight on earth
= 174 x 1/6
= 174/6
= 29 pounds

An astronaut weighing 174 pounds on Earth would weigh about 29 pounds on the Moon. This calculation is based on Moon's gravity being one-sixth that of Earth's. Hence, the astronaut's weight on the Moon is found by dividing their Earth weight by 6.
