What controls the force of gravity between two objects?

Answer:
The mass of the two objects and the distance between them control the force of gravity between them. The equation for the force of gravity between two objects is Fg=(GMm)/R2, so if two objects are very massive, the force will be greater, and if two objects are very close the force will be greater. The force of gravity is directly related to the mass of the objects and inversely related to the distance between them.
