Popis: This study aims to describe the mathematical thinking of 13-year-old students through problem-solving. Mathematical thinking consist of several aspects, namely: reasoning, abstraction, symbolization, and representation. The respondents were 6 students. The instruments used were tests and interviews. Tests are used two problem-solving. The data collection used qualitative approach. The conclusion is deductive dominant in reasoning. The formal form and geometrization are dominant in mathematization. All aspect of abstraction appears on students’ answer. Reasoning seen when students use prior knowledge and prior concept to solve problems. Abstraction appears when students find a particular form (pattern) of the problem being solved. mathematization appear when students visualize problems and use algebraic concepts to solve the problem.
