Answer:

1800/300 = 6ropes

Step-by-step explanation:

The engine weighs 1800N and the person exerts a force of 300N, so for him to lift the engine and exerting a force of 300N all through we divide the weight of the engine by the force exerted to know how many ropes are used. Which makes it 6 thereby each rope uses 300N to lift the engine.
