We also provide the alternative version of Leray-Schauder type of our new result. In order to demonstrate the applicability of our theoretical result, we present an existence theorem based on a functional equation. Finally, we provide an illustration of our existence theorem.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessfixed point; measure of noncompactness; functional equationRakotch type extension of Darbo's fixed point theorem and an applicationArticle8613946WOS:001186097800014N/A
