Video Summary

The problem involves three gears with a highlighted gear tooth on each. The task is to determine the correct position of these teeth after one full clockwise rotation of the small gear. The small gear has 10 teeth, and both larger gears have 13 teeth each. As the small gear rotates clockwise, it forces the dark blue gear to rotate counterclockwise, and subsequently, the light blue gear rotates clockwise. After completing one full rotation, positions are calculated by moving the gears 10 positions. The analysis concludes that the alignment of the gears matches option A.
