Answer:

The wheel and axle work by reducing the effect of friction on an object, thereby creating a mechanical advantage.

Once the object is moving, the force of friction opposes the force exerted on the object. The wheel and axle makes this easier by reducing the friction involved in moving an object.

Hope it helps!
