Explanation :

The efficiency of a machine is always less than 100 %. This is because some of the energy gets lost in the form of heat energy, sound energy and frictional energy.

Mathematically it is defined as :

[tex]\eta=\dfrac{W_o}{W_i}[/tex]

Where,

[tex]\eta[/tex] is the efficiency

[tex]W_o[/tex] is output work

[tex]W_i[/tex] is input work

Hence, this is the required explanation.
