Detailed Solution

g=GMR2 =G43πR3ρR2 g=G43πRρ 
 

Since the density is constant, we can say:
gR                            

g1g2=R1R2            

Mass is changed without changing the density. We don't know how the radius of the planet is changed.That can be found from the following:
M=43πR13ρ,M8=43πR23ρ

MM8=43πR13ρ43πR23ρ

8=R13R23 2=R1R2

g1g2=2g2=g12
