A fixed gear having 100 teeth meshes with another gear having 25 teeth, the centre lines of both the gears being joined by an arm so as to form an epicyclic gear train. The number of rotations made by the smaller gear for one rotation of the arm is Correct Answer 5

Revolution of 25 teeth gear = 1 + T100/T25 = 1 + 100/25 =5.
