If the distance between the earth & moon were doubled, the gravitational force between them will be?

The gravitational fource will decrease.If you were to double the distance between the Earth and Moon then 2 squared would explain the change in force. 2 x 2 = 4 which means the the force of gravity would decrease by a factor of 4.

If you were to triple the distance between the Earth and Moon then 3 squared would explain the force change. So in this case the force of gravity would diminish by a factor of 9.
