Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to prove that instead of a rational contraction shown in the papers Afrah A. N. Abdou, \emph{Fixed point theorems for generalized contraction mappings in multiplicative metric spaces, }J. Nonlinear Sci.
Appl. 9, 2347-2363, (2016) and N. Sharma, K. Kumar, S. Sharma, R. Jha, \emph{Rational contractive condition
in multiplicative metric space and common fixed point theorem}, International Journal of Innovative Research in Science,
Engineering and Technology, 5, 10473-10480 (2016) a more general contractive condition can be obtained in multiplicative metric spaces, which is equivalent to a contractive condition in metric spaces.
