Abstract
In this paper, we numerically approximate the solutions of the first-order fractional differential equation system that models blood ethanol concentration using a fractional variational iteration method (FVIM) developed for high-order differential equations. Comparative analysis with two different variational iteration methods, including one specifically tailored for this problem, shows that the FVIM achieves lower approximation errors.
