To solve this we are going to use the formula for ideal mechanical advantage: 
where
is the machine mechanical advantage
is the input distance
is the output distance
We know for our problem that
and 
. Lets replace those values in our formula to find :
The ideal machine advantage of the machine is 3. The inventor is claiming that the actual mechanical advantage of the machine is 4. Since the actual mechanical advantage takes into account energy losses, it is always less than the ideal mechanical advantage. We can conclude that the developer's claim is false.
