Abstract: Malnutrition is a major issue in developing nations, particularly some African nations. Its effect in children under five years old can not be over emphasized. Our model establishes the existence and uniqueness of solutions to malnutrition model equations, and numerically, the population of children in each class was obtained by parameter values; converting the differential equations system into Laplace transform, and their inverse Laplace transform was achieved. The outcome of the study showed a significant rise in the number of malnourished children. Malnutrition incidence can be considerably decreased by effective prevention and control measures and the result from this study has a positive impact on public health thereby lowering the rates of morbidity and mortality in children less than five years of age.
