Yes 440, you have it backwards... at least in terms of a car. It's easy to get confused by it. In automotive circles, gear ratio and the description are tweaked...lol. The higher the torque multiplication, the lower the gear in terms of transmission gears you're in. First is a "lower" gear than 2nd..etc etc etc. This is carried over to the rear axle too. You're technically right with a lower gear ratio being 3.23:1 vs 5.13:1 because there's less turns of the drive gear vs the driven gear. But in automotive circles, it's not a standard way of describing things.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.
