Answer: Mercury<Uranus<Earth<Neptune
Explanation: Weight is the downward force acting on an object due to gravity.
w= weight of an object
m= mass of object
g= gravity
As the person has a constant mass, the weight differs due to the value of gravity (g). The planet having highest gravity would make a person weigh the most.
As the value of gravity varies: Mercury (3.7)<Uranus(8.9)<Earth(9.8)<neptune(11.2), the weight of the person varies in the same order: Mercury<Uranus<Earth<neptune.

We will define the Total mass to calculate the force, so our values are:
Total Mass
The Weight is,
Through the hook's Law we calculate X.
, where x is the lenght of compression and K the Spring constant.
We don't have a K-Spring, but we can assume a random value (or simply let the equation in function of K)
I assume a value of
