%0 Journal Article %T A New Method for Solving Fuzzy Linear Programs with Trapezoidal Fuzzy Numbers %A Amit Kumar %A Jagdeep Kaur %J Journal of Fuzzy Set Valued Analysis %D 2011 %I International scientific publication and consulting services (ISPACS) %R 10.5899/2011/jfsva-00102 %X Ganesan and Veeramani [Fuzzy linear programs with trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, Annals of Operations Research 143 (2006) 305-315.] proposed a new method for solving a special type of fuzzy linear programming problems. In this paper a new method, named as Mehar's method, is proposed for solving the same type of fuzzy linear programming problems and it is shown that it is easy to apply the Mehar's method as compared to the existing method for solving the same type of fuzzy linear programming problems. %K Fuzzy linear programming %K Trapezoidal fuzzy numbers %K Ranking function %U http://www.ispacs.com/journals/jfsva/2011/jfsva-00102/article.pdf
