Suppose the moon of a planet has a mass of 1/76th the mass of the planet it is orbiting (note: the moons shown above actually are even a smaller fraction than that!). What is the ratio of the force the moon applies to the planet compared to the force the planet applies to the moon? (Express your answer as a number--don't enter anything like A:B or A/B, just the single number you get by dividing A by B.)
