Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool,mechanical device or machine system.To calculate an object mechanical advantage, you divide the output force by the input force. We do as follows:

Mechanical advantage = output force / input force = 25 N / 250 N = 0.1
