How do I calculate work?

Here is my problem:

How much work would it take to lift a 1,000 kg limestone block 146 m to the top of the Great Pyramid?

Thank You for any help

Use the formula:

$\text{Work done} = \text{Force}\ \times\ \text{Displacement}$

And remember that:

$\text{Force} = \text{Mass}\ \times\ \text{Acceleration}$
