According to the national examination (UN) scores for Junior High School in East Sumba in 2019, it can be seen that the percentage of student’s math scores based on the comparison of test scores with graduation standards is still very low. In view of the problem, studies are conducted to describe a student’s error, describing the factors that cause students to make mistakes in solving problems, and planning follow-up actions to minimize student errors when operating addition and subtraction of algebraic fraction. This type of research is qualitative approach. The technique of determining the student’s research subject uses the cluster sampling technique with sample 5 students. The technique of collecting data is done by writing tests, interviews and documentary studies. The results showed that according to Newman’s five types of errors, student made 5 types of errors, and the most common mistakes were in encoding error of 1,53%, then processing skill error 2,33%; transformation error 2,5%; comprehension error and reading error 3,1%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
