the Moon's mass is about 1.2% of the Earth's mass (1/80th), so the Moon's gravity is much less than the Earth's gravity: 83.3% (or 5/6) less to be exact.

Weight" is a measure of that gravitational pull. The Moon's mass is about 1.2% of the Earth's mass (1/80th), so the Moon's gravity is much less than the Earth's gravity: 83.3% (or 5/6) less to be exact. Other related facts: the Moon is 1/4 the size of the Earth by diameter, and 1/50 the size by volume.
