* Directly proportional to the product of their masses. This means that the more massive the objects, the stronger the gravitational force.
* Inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This means that as the distance between the objects increases, the gravitational force between them decreases rapidly.
So, to answer your question directly, Newton's Law states that the force of gravity between two bodies decreases as the square of the distance between them increases.
This is often described as the "inverse square law." It means that if you double the distance between two objects, the gravitational force between them will be reduced to one quarter of its original strength. If you triple the distance, the force will be reduced to one ninth of its original strength. And so on.
