As two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. ... If the separation distance between any two objects is tripled (increased by a factor of 3), then the force of gravitational attraction is decreased by a factor of 9 (3 raised to the second power).

F = GMm/r^2

So F is proportional to 1/r^2

F2 = 2700 x ( 1 / 3^2 ) = 300N
