More correctly your question should be what the mass of the moon is, not its weight since it is in free fall in space and thus has no "weight." The mass of the moon is 7.349^22 kilograms.

7.3477Ã10^22 kg or 0.0123 that of Earth.
That is scientific notation for:
73,477,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg
But that is technically mass, not weight. Technically, the Moon is just as weightless as the astronauts in orbit, because it too is in orbit.

The mass of the earth's moon is 7.35 x 10^22 kilograms, or 1.23% the
earth's mass.
