description Yager recently introduced the <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy set to accommodate uncertainty in decision-making problems. A binary relation over dual universes has a vital role in mathematics and information sciences. During this work, we defined upper approximations and lower approximations of <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy sets using crisp binary relations with regard to the aftersets and foresets. We used an accuracy measure of a <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy set to search out the accuracy of a <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy set, and we defined two types of <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy topologies induced by reflexive relations. The novel concept of a rough <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy set over dual universes is more flexible when debating the symmetry between two or more objects that are better than the prevailing notion of a rough Pythagorean fuzzy set, as well as rough intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Furthermore, using the score function of <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy sets, a practical approach was introduced to research the symmetry of the optimal decision and, therefore, the ranking of feasible alternatives. Multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) methods for <i>q</i>-rung orthopair fuzzy sets cannot solve problems when an individual is faced with the symmetry of a two-sided matching MCDM problem. This new approach solves the matter more accurately. The devised approach is new within the literature. In this method, the main focus is on ranking and selecting the alternative from a collection of feasible alternatives, reckoning for the symmetry of the two-sided matching of alternatives, and providing a solution based on the ranking of alternatives for an issue containing conflicting criteria, to assist the decision-maker in a final decision.
