Abstract

This qualitative research aimed to determine the math problem-solving skills of grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 2 Sungguminasa in solving number patterns essay exercises based on Polya steps. The subject of the study was a grade VIII student at SMP Negeri 2 Sungguminasa with three students. In taking subjects in this study used the Purposive Sampling technique with the Maximum type Variation. The instruments in this study used tests with three problem-solving questions and interview guidelines. Then it continued with triangulation techniques. This research’s data analysis techniques used the Miles and Huberman models, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The results showed that students with high categories could solve the problems at each stage of problem-solving correctly. Students in the category were solving the problem given and solving it correctly, but they were still less systematic in some other stages. Students with low categories could not understand the problem and have not been able to meet different stages.
