Answer:

work done on desk = m g h = 105 * 9.81 * 2.46 = 2534 Joules

Explanation:

so work in = 2534 / 0.875 = 2896 Joules

that is your 648 times distance your hand moved holding the rope

2896 = 648 * x

4.47 meters

I think maybe a typo, 648 N is too big, maybe 64.8 ? Any block and tackle system does better than that.
