Your weight of 100 pounds on earth would be different on Mars.
Your mass would be the same, but your weight would be less because Mars has a weaker pull of gravity.
This weaker Martian gravity results from the smaller mass of Mars.
Mars has a mass of 6.4219 x 1023 kg while the mass of the Earth is 59.72 x 1023 kg.
The deceased weight would be
100 pounds x ( 6.4219 x 1023 kg / 59.72 x 1023 kg ) = 11 pounds
