Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

Single movable pulley has 2 VR because in single fixed pulley, load is supported with two segments of the string. It makes the effort distance double of the load distance. {As VR = No.of pulley used or number of rope segments that supports the load.}

Hope it helps...
