The formula for finding work is W=FxD. W being work, "F" being force that is or was in occurence, and "D" beind the distance the object is being moved.

Example: MaryAnn is trying to figure out how much work she doing when she is exerting a force on a box, of 45.8 N ( newtons) and moving it 3.7 meters. Find Work.

First you would find your force value, which would be 45.8 N. Then identify the distance , in this case its 3.7 meters. Multiply them together. Your answer should be 169.46. That is the amount of MaryAnn has exerted.
