Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to propose a fast and easy ranking method for solving the fuzzy multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems. The representation of multiplication operation on fuzzy numbers is useful for decision makers who are in the fuzzy multiple criteria decision-making environment to rank all candidate alternatives and choose the best one. In this paper, we first propose the representation of multiplication operation on triangular fuzzy numbers and then this representation of multiplication operation on triangular fuzzy numbers is applied to solving a numerical example of location selection
