Abstract
Numerical root-finding methods of nonlinear equations (NLE) are important as it has a many applications in engineering and sciences. Therefore, this arises to the study of the designing and stability of iterative approaches to solve NLE. Several higher order iterative technique are available in literature to approximate the solution of NLE. To increase the efficiency and stability of iterative methods different approaches are used by earlier authors. Recently, authors have developed the iterative schemes with multiplicative derivative to solve the NLE. In this direction, we have constructed the sixth order iterative method with the concept of multiplicative derivative instead of ordinary derivative. Some numerical have been tested and compared with earlier methods.
