What is the formula of a driven gear and a driving gear?

Turn the drive gear 1 complete turn, and count how many times the driven gear turns. For example, to figure out the rear end gear ratio if the drive shaft turns once and the rear turns 3 and a half times you have a 1:3.5 gear ratio. This means the rear wheels turn 3.5 times for each one turn of the drive shaft.

To get 4X4 Hi or Low. the selctor simpley moves the idler gear to a bigger or smaller gear on the primary shaft, depending on what speed was selected . Reference : New Process Gear
