open the cover and count the ring and pinion teeth and divide the smaller number(pinion) into the larger number (ring gear).
or you can spin the yoke on the pinion and count how many axle rotations come from 1 full turn.

the numbers casted onto the housing is just a part number.
i think its 3.23 turns of the axles to 1 turn of the drive shaft or the other way around (3.23 turns of the DS is 1 turn of the axles.
same goes for 2.73, just 2.73 turns of either parts.
