Yes, mechanical advantage is calculated by dividing the output force by the input force. It provides a measure of how much a machine can multiply force or distance.
input force
To calculate mechanical advantage, you need to know the input force and the output force. Mechanical advantage is calculated by dividing the output force by the input force. It provides a measure of how much a machine multiplies force or changes the direction of force.
When the output force is greater than the input force on a simple machine, the machine provides a mechanical advantage, making it easier to perform work. This allows the machine to lift or move heavier loads than would be possible with just the input force alone.

input force is force exerted on a machine
An output force is the force that is exerted from the input force to create motion of the resisting object. the input force can be less or more then the output force
Input and output are shown on a force diagram by the human being the input force and the load force being the output force. When you divide output force by input force, you get the mechanical advantage of a lever.
The difference between and input force and an output force is that an output force is force exerted by a machine, and an input force is force exerted on a machine.
The actual mechanical advantage is the ratio of the output force to the input force in a machine. It is calculated as the ratio of the resistance force to the effort force. It provides insight into how much a machine amplifies or diminishes the force applied to it.
