    Set up a ratio of Neil Armstrong's weight before over his after to the other persons weight before and after:

    360 / 60 = 150 / X

    Cross multiply:

    360x = 150 * 60

    360x = 9000

    Divide both sides by 360:

    x = 9000 / 360

    x = 25

    A 150 pound person would weigh 25 pounds on the moon.
