A 20 tooth pinion on the motor meshes with a 56 tooth wheel on the axle giving a gear ratio of 20 to 56. With a 33 inch diameter wheel, every wheel revolution covers pi times diameter, about 103.672 inches. To travel 100 feet (1200 inches), the wheel makes roughly 11.56 revolutions. Motor revolutions equal wheel revolutions times the gear ratio 56/20, about 32.3. Therefore the motor makes about 32 revolutions for 100 feet.
