Using transformers on my workbench

I am a complete novice, trying to learn about modern electronics and circuits. I cannot figure out how to set up a transformer, using the parameters that are offered on the 2 transformers which the workbench toolkit offers. I thought v2 = N2/N1 x v1 was all I needed, to step up or step down voltage across a transformer.

Can anyone walk me through setting up a transformer for my circuit?

Thank you,

Transformers can be quite confusing for the novice anyway.

Transformers in CL are really confusing.
