Linear programming is a mathematical tool for optimizing an outcome through a mathematical model. In recent times different mathematical models are extensively used in the planning of different real-life applications such as agriculture, management, business, industry, transportation, telecommunication, engineering, and so on. It is mainly used to make the real-life situation easier, more comfortable, and more economic, and to get optimum achievement from the limited resources. This paper has tried to shed light on the basic information about linear programming problems and some real-life applications. It presents the general introduction of the linear programming problem, historical overview, meaning and definition of a linear programming problem, assumptions of a linear programming problem, component of a linear programming problem, and characteristics of a linear programming problem, and some highlights of some real-life applications.
