Here's why:
* Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation: This law states that the force of gravity between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses.
* More Mass, More Attraction: This means that if one object has a larger mass, the product of the masses will be greater, resulting in a stronger gravitational force.
Think of it this way: the more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull. So, a larger object will exert a stronger pull on a smaller object.
