The score function, the accuracy function, hamming distance, normalized hamming distance, Euclidean distance and normalized Euclidean distance of Nonagonal and m-polar Nonagonal Neutrosophic number are derived. Some de-neutrosophication method for Nonagonal Neutrosophic number and some properties of m-valued Nonagonal Neutrosophic number are proved. In this article the optimal path of an acyclic network is estimated using Neutrosophic α-cut  grade, Neutrosophic Euclidean grade technique and dynamic programming recursion method through Nonagonal Neutrosophic number. The score function and the removal area method are used to transform the Nonagonal Neutrosophic number to crisp number and the results obtained in both the methods are compared. 2022 2022 66 79 10.54216/IJNS.190206 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/21/show/1339
