Suppose there are three new restaurants have started to serve in your neighborhood and you are evaluating those three restaurants based on three criteria. The candidates are denoted with R1, R2 and R3. You use the following criteria to evaluate the restaurants: price, location and taste. Your pairwise comparisons for the restaurants with respect to the listed criteria are given below: Price R1 R2 R3 R1 1 5 3 R2 1/5 1 1/2 R3 1/3 2 1 Location R1 R2 R3 R1 1 1/6 1/4 R2 6 1 2 R3 4 1/2 1 Taste R1 R2 R3 R1 1 4 1/4 R2 1/4 1 1/9 R3 4 9 1 Besides, pairwise criteria comparison table is given below: Price Location Taste Price 1 3 5 Location 1/3 1 3 Taste 1/5 1/3 1
