Imagine using a brick under a plank to lift a bunch of bricks or something. The brick is acting as the fulcrum. The simple machine is the Lever. The fulcrum is integral to the lever and is what makes it work. Levers are machines just as cars and lathes are. They are inanimate objects which help us do a thing. Levers multiply force. They make it easier to open tins of paint and adjust our desk chair heights. Hope this helps.
