The Fibonacci numbers are defined by F1=F2=1F_{1}=F_{2}=1, and Fn=Fn−1+Fn−2F_{n}=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2} for n≥3n \geq 3. If the number F2003F2002−F2004F2003 \frac{F_{2003}}{F_{2002}}-\frac{F_{2004}}{F_{2003}} is written as a fraction in lowest terms, what is the numerator?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
The Fibonacci numbers are defined by F₁=F₂=1, and F_(n)=F_(n−1)+F_(n−2) for n≥3. If the number (F₂₀₀₃)/(F₂₀₀₂)−(F₂₀₀₄)/(F₂₀₀₃) is written as a fraction in lowest terms, what is the numerator?
Original LaTeX notation
The Fibonacci numbers are defined by $F_{1}=F_{2}=1$, and $F_{n}=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$ for $n \geq 3$. If the number $$ \frac{F_{2003}}{F_{2002}}-\frac{F_{2004}}{F_{2003}} $$ is written as a fraction in lowest terms, what is the numerator?
