Multi Motor Drivettrains

Hey,
I saw some of the nicely done drive trains such as Woburn as the image posted by the Technokats in a different message. I was wondering how one could go about figuring out the gear ratios for connecting two different motors to a singular drive train. My thought was that find the ratio of RPM's and then match gears with the reverse ratio. Is that correct? For example the drill motor has 300RPM (not true) and the fisherprice motor has 100RPM, would you put a gear ration of 1:3 on the two motors, where the gear on the fisher price motor is 3 times greater than that on the drill motor?
