    - - Multiplying the mass by 4 multiplies the acceleration of gravity by 4.

    - - Doubling the radius multiplies the acceleration of gravity by (1/2²) = 1/4.

    - - Doing both multiplies the acceleration of gravity by (4 / 4) = 1.

    It doesn't change. The acceleration of gravity on that planet

    would be the same as it is on Earth.
