The efficiency of a wedge is calculated by dividing the load distance by the effort distance, then multiplying the result by 100 to get a percentage. The formula is: Efficiency = (load distance / effort distance) x 100. This gives you the ratio of the load distance to the effort distance, indicating how efficiently the wedge can lift or separate objects.
