Use one gear with four teeth and one with 100
or you could do 5, 25, 125.

Just do the math. Its pretty easy. There are tons of combinations I haven't mentioned.

More than likely you won't use those ratios, but you can get sprockets, chains, etc at your local bike shop.
As for gears? I'm not sure. But yes, you could use sprockets and chains instead of meshing the gears
