In this paper, we use the collocation method together with Chebyshev polynomials to solve system of Lane–Emden type (SLE) equations. We first transform the given SLE equation to a matrix equation by means of a truncated Chebyshev series with unknown coefficients. Then, the numerical method reduces each SLE equation to a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. The solution of this matrix equation yields the unknown coefficients of the solution function. Hence, an approximate solution is obtained by means of a truncated Chebyshev series. Also, to show the applicability, usefulness, and accuracy of the method, some examples are solved numerically and the errors of the solutions are compared with existing solutions.
