Answer:

18 teeth/inch

Explanation:

Given that: i. driver gear has 8 teeth and diametral pitch of 6 teeth/inch.

                  ii. follower gear has 24 teeth.

Let the followers diametral pitch be represented by x.

Then,

8 teeth ⇒  6 teeth/inch

24 teeth ⇒ x teeth/inch

So that;

x = [tex]\frac{24 x 6}{8}[/tex]

   = [tex]\frac{144}{8}[/tex]

   = 18 teeth/inch

The diametral is 18 teeth/inch
