Abstract
Mathematically formulated problems pervade all branches of science and engineering. To an extent, this trend is discernible in social sciences like economics and business management as well. Lately, medical science is also catching up with this trend. When a mathematical formulation is simple in form, one can manage the calculations for the solution of the problem using paper, pencil and a digital calculator. On the other hand, if calculations for the solution are long and complicated in nature, one is compelled to consider the general mathematical form of the problem.
