This paper introduces the concept of Pentapartitioned Neutrosophic Numbers (PNNs) and proposes score and accuracy functions to effectively rank PNNs based on their score values. Utilizing the adaptability of Dombi operators to accommodate various parameters, the study applies these operators to address complex Multicriteria Attribute Group Decision Making (MAGDM) problems. To achieve precise aggregation under neutrosophic conditions, Dombi T-norm and T-conorm operations for two PNNs are defined. Building upon these Dombi operations, the paper presents two weighted aggregation operators—PNDWAA (Pentapartitioned Neutrosophic Dombi Weighted Arithmetic Average) and PNDWGA (Pentapartitioned Neutrosophic Dombi Weighted Geometric Average)—and investigates their properties within the pentapartitioned neutrosophic environment. Furthermore, the study explores a Multicriteria Attribute Decision Making (MADM) approach that utilizes either the PNDWAA or PNDWGA operators for decision-making.An illustrative example is provided to demonstrate the proposed method, offering a detailed step-by-step process that highlights the effectiveness of the approach in determining the optimal alternative based on ranking order.
