This research is background by the low learning outcomes of students in mathematics learning and learning that is still Teacher Centered. The purpose of the study is to see the effect of the Realistic Mathematic Education (RME) approach on the Learning Outcomes of Fractions of fifth grade elementary school. The type of research is experimental research with a Quasi Experimental Design type of Nonequivalent Control Group Design, with the research population being all fifth grade elementary school students in Lubuk Kilangan. The sampling technique is nonprobability sampling purposive sampling obtained SDN 20 Indarung as a sample class. The research instrument is in the form of multiple choice and fill-in tests. For initial data analysis, the Normality Test and Homogeneity Test are used. While on the final data, the Normality Test, Homogeneity Test, Hypothesis Test and N-Gain Test are carried out. Based on the results of the research data analysis, the average pretest value for the experimental class is 43.3036 and for the control class is 45.2586. After being given treatment to the experimental class using the RME approach and the control class using the conventional approach, the average posttest of the experimental class was 75.4464 and the control class 62.931. The results of data analysis from the hypothesis test that had been carried out, obtained t_{count} of 2.308 and t_{table} of 2.004. This t_{count} > t_{table} namely 2.308 > 2.004, then the hypothesis H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected. By using the N-Gain test, it can be seen that the increase in the experimental class's value is better than the control class, namely 0.60077 and 0.33785 with the results of the N-Gain test calculation for both classes being 0.26292.
