Try doing your own homework next time.
But anyway, 10 kg on earth and 100 N on the moon.

250 N is the force acting on the body.
force = mass * acceleration
acceleration= 9.8 m/s^2 (gravitational pull of the earth)
force = 250 N
250 = mass * 9.8
mass = 25.51 kg
mass on earth = 25.51 kg
force of gravity on moon is 1/6 times to that on earth
acceleration on moon = 9.8 * 1/6
=1.6 m / s^2
force = mass * acceleration
= 25.51 * 1.6
=40. 81 N
the sack of rice will weigh 40.81 N on moon

F=mg
Newton (N) is the unit of force... So,
250=mg
g (acceleration due to gravity) on earth is 9.8, therefore
250=m *9.8
m=250/9.8
m=25.51 kg (approx)
On moon, g is 1/6th the value of that on earth... Mass will be same, but weight will be 1/6th, That is approx.
41.667 N...
