Solving Fully Fuzzy Linear Systems by use of a Certain Decomposition of the Coefficient Matrix

In this paper, we give a certain decomposition of the coefficient matrix of the fully fuzzy linear system (FFLS) to obtain a simple algorithm for solving these systems. The new algorithm can solve FFLS in a smaller computing process. We will illustrate our method by solving some examples.
