Answer:

95.51 N

Explanation:

First, find the mass in kg:

Fg = 585 N

Fg = m*g

585 N = m*9.8 m/s^2

m = 59.69 kg

Then, to find your weight (Fg) on the moon, you use the same equation of

Fg(moon) = m*g, except this time g = 1.60 m/s^2

Fg(moon) = 59.69 kg * 1.60 m/s^2

Fg(moon) = 95.51 N

Hope this helps!! :)
