Solution

Step 1: Given data
The weight of a person on earth $600 k g$
Step 2: Finding the weight of a person on the moon
$W_{m o o n} = \frac{1}{6} W_{e a r t h}$
Substituting the values into the formula
$W_{m o o n} = \frac{1}{6} \times 600$
$= 100 k g$
Therefore, the person's weight on the moon is $100 k g .$
