A construction crew lifts approximately 680 lb. of material several times during a day from a flatbed truck to a 34 ft rooftop. A block and tackle system with 50 lb. of effort force is designed to lift the materials.

How many supporting strands will be needed in the pulley system?

To find the number of strands needed divide the total weight by the force.

680 / 50 = 13.6

Because the answer is not a whole number you would round up to the next whole number.

13.6 rounds up to 14

The number of strands needed would be 14.
