In the present paper, the researchers discuss the problem of parametric interval approximation of fuzzy numbers. It is the interval which fulfills two conditions. In the first, this interval is a continuous interval approximation operator. In the second, the parametric weighted distance between this interval and the approximated number is minimal and continuous. This interval can be used as a crisp set approximation with respect to a fuzzy quantity. These indices can be applied for comparison of fuzzy numbers namely fuzzy correlations in fuzzy environments and expert's systems. Finally, some of their applications are mentioned. Key words: Fuzzy numbers, defuzzification, interval approximation, correlation.
