The interpolation by method which consists of the representation of numerical data by a suitable polynomial and then to compute the value of the dependent variable from the polynomial corresponding to any given value of the independent variable leads to the necessity of a method for representing a given set of numerical data on a pair of variables by a suitable polynomial. One such method has been composed in this study. The method is based on the inversion of a square matrix from Caley-Hamilton theorem. The method obtained has been applied in representing the numerical data, on the total population of India since 1971, by a polynomial curve.
