Hey,
Ur answer is here,
Let the mass of ab object on earth be m.
Therefore its weight will be =m×g
=m×9.8
=9.8m
It's weight on moon =1/6of earth
=1/6×9.8m
=1.63333333m
Hope it helps you

AnmolBalwal: I need the derivation of 1/6...
iqrafatima: sorry but I can't understand ur question still
iqrafatima: will u explain me further
AnmolBalwal: I need the derivation of 1/6 derive that weight on moon is 1/6 that of earth

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity of planet

At surface of Earth
Weight = mg = 9.8m

At surface of moon
Weight = mg/6 ……[∵ Acceleration due to gravity at surface of moon is 1/6 times that of earth]
Weight = m × 9.8/6 = 1.63m
