Compared to Earth, Mars is a tiny world. In fact, Mars' mass is only 10% the mass of the Earth. Mass of Mars is 0.107 the mass of Earth. Why does Mars have such a low mass? Partly it's because it's so small. Mars has a radius half the size of the Earth. And partly it's because Mars has a much lower density than Earth.

From "The Nine Planets";

6.4219e23 kg

The "e23" part of that number is "scientific notation" or "exponential notation", a shorthand way of writing very large or very tiny numbers. This means "6.4219 times ten to the 23rd power", or a 6 followed by 23 zeroes.

In other numbers, Mars is about 10.7% the mass of Earth.
