### Abstract

In this paper, two important methods which apply for solving Fuzzy differential equations are compared. These methods are: 1. Zadeh extension principal 2. Standard Euler method The methods are compared by numerical examples.Also in each case by approximating the errors,the converges of the methods will be considered. The results are shown in tables and figures.
