The Gear Ratio is defined as the input speed relative to the output speed. It is
typically written as:
Gear Ratio = win : wout
The fundamental equations for a gear pair are:
tin win = tout wout
wout / win = rin / rout
wout / win = nin / nout
tout / tin = rout / rin
tout / tin = nout / nin
(power equality)
(velocity relationship in terms of radiuses)
(velocity relationship in terms of number of teeth)
(torque relationship in terms of radiuses)
(torque relationship in terms of number of teeth)

t = Torque
w = Angular Speed (rad/sec or RPM)
r = Radius
n = Number Teeth

The gear on the motor and on the robot are fixed as shown above. You will have 258T gears, 1-12T gear and 1-20T gear. How could you arrange the gears to give a
gear ration like below? We want out robot to turn one time every time the motor turns
about 61.5 times. If our motor turns about 2,000 revolutions per minute, how fast will
our robot turn??
