Solution

We aligned the input shaft and output shaft with reference points. We turned the input shaft an even number of turns to measure the number of turns on the output shaft. The output shaft was measured with a protractor and then converted to number of turns.

Gear Rotation (Output/Input) Ratio
Reverse 1.11/4 0.277
1st 1.33/5 0.266
2nd 1.5/3 0.5
3rd 1.44/2 0.722
4th 1.92/2 0.96
