21.58 lb, because the moon has less gravity.
She would still have the same mass.

Moon's gravity is 1/6 Earths...
1/6 of 130 lbs = 22 lbs

The moon's gravity is about 1/6 that of Earth. Weight is a function of gravity.
If her weight on Earth is 160 lbs, then on the moon it will be approx 21.7 lbs.
On the other hand, mass does not change, so that if you meant 160 kg (she's a big girl) her mass will be the same on the moon.

1/6 of what she would with on earth. That is 130/6 = 21.666

She would still weigh 130 pounds, her mass doesn't change - just our Moon has less gravity. So, if you tried to pick her up on earth and then tried to do it again on the moon, you would notice that it is much easier on the moon than on earth. But this isn't due to her mass changing, just the gravity.

She would weigh 130 lbs, as we have defined weight on Earth. the weaker gravity of the Moon would have less affect on her, making it seem like she weighed more like 60% of that.
