hi daryl
it's easy, once you figure which gears to count, you just count the teeth  on 
the respective gears and divide the number of teeth on one gear by that on  
the other.  determining which ones to count, in the transmission is beyond  my 
expertise.  i know though that it is as simple as that, once you know  which 
gears to count.
say you were trying to determine the ratio of a rear axle.  that is  easy as 
there are only two gears.  one big one and one small one.  the  big one will 
have 3 to 4 times as many teeth, the exact number being the  ratio.
i assume the same applies to the tranny.
good luck.  i hope that helps.
