How can you find the mechanical advantage of the six different simple machines? (simples mechinals are pulleys, inclined plane, wheel and axle, lever, wedge, and screw)

Hey there!

Each machine preety much have the same type of concept. Let's take for example, a screw. What is a screw? A screw is simply a long/small little "stick" that is able to 'twurl' it's way inside a hole, and hold it's self tight, and also take it's self right back out.

Now, based on the other 5 machines, we can see that it would be very similar of the screw. There would be a in and out function, left to right function, up and down function, and a rounded function, such as a pulley. Those would be the advantages of these different types of machines.

I hope this helps you!

real, smaller and upside-down.   so the answer should be b.
