Gravitational force between two objects can be computed using the formula:

Where:

Fg is the gravitational force (Newtons or N)

G is the gravitational constant (6.674⋅10⁻¹¹N(m/kg)²)

M is the mass of one object (Kilograms or Kg)

m is the mass of the other object (Kilograms or Kg)

r is the distance between the two objects (m)

Now notice the relationship between the mass and gravitational force. Their relationship is direct, meaning as the value of one goes up, the other goes up and the reverse holds true. If the mass of one or both of the objects decreases, the gravitational force also decreases.

Now look at the relationship between the distance between the objects and the gravitational force-- they are indirect. This means that as one increases, the other decreases. So if we increase the distance between the objects, the gravitational force between them decreases as well.
