    0.8

    Explanation:

    Work = force * distance

    W = Fd

    W = 75 N * 5 m

    W = 375 J

    Potential energy = weight * height

    PE = mgh

    PE = 100 N * 3 m

    PE = 300 J

    Efficiency = energy out / energy in

    e = 300 J / 375 J

    e = 0.8

    The efficiency is 0.8, or 80%.
