Solution

Use the following formulas:

Weight on the Moon = Weight on Earth × 1/6

Weight on Mars = Weight on Earth × 0.38

Example:

Friend Weight on Earth (kg) Weight on Moon (kg) Weight on Mars (kg)
A 42 7.0 16.0
B 48 8.0 18.2
C 55 9.2 20.9
D 60 10.0 22.8
E 68 11.3 25.8

You can replace the Earth weights with the actual weights of your five friends and calculate:

  • Moon weight = Earth weight ÷ 6
  • Mars weight = Earth weight × 0.38
