Default odometer after gears

Anyone know how to calculate what the actual mileage is? I found plenty of stuff on speed correction but nothing on mileage. Went from 3.23 to 4.10. Had 40k miles now 100k miles. Never tuned for the gears.

I went from 3.42's to 4.10's and w/out correction and I noticed I'm .2 tenths of a mile faster than stock on my odometer. Meaning that when I go half a mile, instead of reading .5 on the trip it reads .7. I don't drive mine much so I'll get it done when I get the cam and dyno tune done.

Only thing I can think of is that there is a 27% difference in gearing between 3.23 and 4.10. So would I be wrong to think that I should subtract 27% of the difference between 40k and 100k from the 100k? Makes sense to me...don't know if it's right though.

You are correct, thanks. I still haven't figured anything out other than my 27% theory.
