Help with Gear Ratio Calculations

Hello everyone, sorry I know this is a very rookie question but I've searched everywhere and can not find the answer. How exactly do you calculate the gear ratio for a gearbox by hand?? I understand that it is Input gear/Output gear but I don't understand which constants to use and what to do when converting because when I do the math I get FPS and Torque output to be in the thousands.
Thanks in advance!

Nick
