Abstract

This study investigates the difficulties faced by junior high school students in solving mathematical problems, a critical aspect of mathematics education. Problem-solving is fundamental not only to the subject itself but also in developing students' cognitive and analytical skills. Through consistent practice, students can enhance their problem-solving abilities, which benefits both their academic growth and their everyday life problem-solving capabilities. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this research aims to explore the challenges students encounter in mathematical problem-solving tasks. The study involved administering a test to assess students’ problem-solving abilities, yielding an average score of 62.11, categorized as moderate. The analysis of individual indicators revealed the following results: understanding the problem (62.31), planning the solution (54.32), solving the problem (42.38), and checking the solution (48.64). These findings suggest that while students demonstrate adequate ability in comprehending the problem, significant challenges remain in planning, solving, and verifying the solutions. Addressing these difficulties is essential for improving mathematical problem-solving skills.
