Therefore, a few numerical methods to find the numerical solutions do act an important role in these problems. In this paper, we concentrate on introducing a new numerical method to solve such problems based on the ranking function. After proving the necessary theories, for more illustrations and the correctness of the topic, some theoretical and practical examples are also provided. Finally, the results obtained from the proposed method have been compared with some existing methods.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessZ -NumbersLinear Programming Problem (Lpp)Ranking FunctionArticle207157174WOS:0010485609000112-s2.0-85172658477N/A10.22111/IJFS.2023.7669Q2
