By definition, we have that the mechanical advantage is given by the following equation:
 [tex]MA = \frac{W}{T} [/tex]
 Where,
 W: is the load
 T: is the tension
 Substituting the values in the given equation we have:
 [tex]MA = \frac{1700}{340} [/tex]
 [tex]MA = 5 [/tex]
 Therefore, the mechanical advantage is equal to 5.
 Answer:
 The mechanical advantage of this machine is:
 MA = 5
