Answer: 135 kg

The weight is the product of the mass
m of the body and the gravity acceleration
g:


W=m.g (1)

Where
g is the acceleration due gravity with a value of
9.8(m)/(s^2) for the Earth

If we want to find the mass, we have to find
m in equation (1):


m=(W)/(g) (2)


m=(1323N)/(9.8(m)/(s^2)) (3)

Finally:


m=135kg
