Two women lift an elephant 777kg weight with a crowbar when the fulcrum for this lever is 0.18m from the weight and the women exerts their strengths at 0.69m and 6.9m respectively from the fulcrum. If the women interchange positions, they can raise a 999 kg elephant. How much force does each women exert?

Joe takes his little brother Andy down the the playground for an afternoon out. Andy would like to ride the seesaw, but the difference in their sizes, Joe weights 160lbs and Andy weighs 641lbs, makes this difficult. Joe sees a solution from his engineering class and moves the fulcrum from the middle to a new place. The seesaw is 3.5m long. What is the mechanical advantage of the seesaw BEFORE Joe moves the falcrum to a new place?
