Mechanical advantage refers to the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it. A lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one is used to increase distance.
The 'ideal' mechanical advantage is length of the effort arm/length of the load arm .
The mechanical advantage of a First Class lever is Distance of the effort from the fulcrum/Distance of the load from the fulcrum
A second class lever always has a mechanical advantage greater than 1.
They provide mechanical advantage.
The mechanical advantage is when the fulcrum is closer to the effort and creates a advantage
The mechanical advantage of the lever is that smaller persons can move heavier objects. The lever can be placed under the object and the person can then push down on the lever.
The mechanical advantage of a lever can be increased by moving the fulcrum towards the load and away from the power end.

second class lever
the IMA is the ideal mechanical advantage.
by using a pulley, lever or gear
The 'ideal' mechanical advantage is length of the effort arm/length of the load arm .
From the design of the lever (on paper), the mechanical advantage is effort arm/load arm which means Distance from pivot to the applied force/distance from pivot to the load The result of that is that the forces will have the reciprocal ratio, and the input force to the lever will be the output force/the Mechanical Advantage .
The mechanical advantage is when the fulcrum is closer to the effort and creates a advantage
A lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one is used to increase distance. A lever is a simple machine connected to ground by a hinge called a fulcrum.
