You can put this solution on YOUR website!

You are asking for help with a Physics problem on a Mathematics website. Basically, you are trying to get your photographs developed at a beauty salon.

=================================
F = G*m1*m2/d^2
I don't remember the value of G, the gravitational constant. There's a long list of things I don't remember, G is one of them.
