The results of this study showed that all the research subjects was able to analyze information. All subjects was able to state the purpose of the question, the information contained in the question, along with their reasons. All subjects were able to used symbols in mathematical operations as showed by the used of variables as examples in both the information obtained and the formulas used. Subjects in category 3 of the polya stages were able to finished only up to carrying out the planned and had not been able to draw conclusions from the results obtained. This was because there was subjects whose problem-solved process was not yet completed.
