If the mechanical advantage of a machine is 4. What is its ratio for LOAD to EFFORT?

MA=4
Ratio of load/effort=?😭

M A=Load/effort
4=Load/effort
Cross multiply
Load=4 effort.

So our load now is 4 × effort

In our initial formula for Mechanical Advantage, Substitute Load with (4 Effort)

Now
Load /effort =
4 effort /effort
Effort will cancel out leaving only 4/1

Therefore, ratio of Load/effort=4/1

The ansa is wrong,,,,,,the right ansa is 1:4....load=1, )effort=4....when u crossmultilply,,,,load/effort=4/1.....load=4effort
