Abstract
In this paper, a new simplified neutrosophic weighted average operator is presented, which is
named as the simplified Neutrosophic Weighted Maclaurin Mean (NWMM). At the same time, the
aggregated formula of NWMM is also established and showed in detail, and some properties of
NWMM are researched. Finally, a practical application in E-commerce of the developed method is
given.
