Sketch one tooth, pattern it as many times as needed and extrude.

Are you asking how to draw a gear tooth or how to pattern? If you need to know how to draw an involute tooth profile that is tough to explain but if you just need to know how to pattern a feature that's easy.

It can be complicated to explain. Try this site for information about the parts of a gear and formulas for creating them.
Once you've looked at that you can either attempt to draw your own or there is a gear already drawn that you can download and modify here.
I make no garauntees as to the accuracy of charles's model but it should work.
