which way does bolting two reduction gearboxes together affect the overall output?
I have an electric motor that spins at 1425rpm. it goes into an 8:1 reduction gearbox to slow it down, and this is then bolted to a 3:1 reduction gear that drives a winch.
my question is - What speed is the winch turning. does it work at an 11:1 reduction (simply add the 8 and 3 together) to give a final speed is 129.5rpm, or is the 8:1 reduced output (178rpm) then reduced (divided) further by 3 giving it a speed of 59rpm?

how to do this? my enjoyment has been cut short by "Your daily limit has been reached. please come back tomorrow" so short of registering another account, until I can figure this out, I'll ask them instead.
