I assume from your Subject that you need a makefile for an app and a lib.
Here is a simple one:

Myapp.exe: mymodule1.o mymodule2.o mymodule3.o libmylib.a
	gcc -o Myapp.exe mymodule1.o mymodule2.o mymodule3.o -lmylib

libmylib.a: myutil1.o myutil2.o myutil3.o
	ar -rs libmylib.a $*

^^^^^^^^Make sure that each target command begins with a tab not spaces!
