because the moon has less mass than earth so humans weigh less on the moon than earth
Anytime you are in a place with less gravity, you or any object will weigh less. The force of gravity on the moon is much less than on Earth.
the moon is smaller than earth, thus it has less gravity
No, you have the same mass. The reason why you weigh less is because the moon has a less gravitational pull on you since it has less mass than the earth.
You would weigh way less on the moon. For example. If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 16.6 pounds on the moon.

They don't have less mass. They weigh less. That's completely different.
You will have less weight on the Moon than on Earth (83.3% less), but your mass will remain unaffected. If you weigh 150lbs on Earth, then you would weigh only 26.55lbs on the Moon.

The moon has weaker gravity than Earth does.
the moon is smaller than earth, thus it has less gravity
No, you weigh less because the moon has less mass, or is smaller, than earth whick means that is has less of a gravitational pull.
Yes, that is exactly what makes you weigh less on Earth then on the Moon, though your mass hasn't changed, your apparent weight does.
the moon's gravitational pull is far less than that of earth's
No, you have the same mass. The reason why you weigh less is because the moon has a less gravitational pull on you since it has less mass than the earth.
because the moon's mass is about one-sixth that of the Earth
You would weigh way less on the moon. For example. If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 16.6 pounds on the moon.
