Probalistic Thinking Based on Probabilistic Thinking Responses to Math Problem Solving

Abstract

Abstract The objective of the study is to describe the fourth-grade students’ probabilistic thinking response of SD State Elementary 4 Kaliwuluh, Karanganyar regency, Central Java, Indonesia to math solving the problem of geometry. It used a qualitative approach. The results of the study show that the students’ responses were in four categories. Their non-response responses were difficult to understand questions and so that they guested their answers. In the non-statistic responses, they could solve their answers self-confidently. In the partial statistic response, they related the materials obtained, but they did not use a proper concept. In the statistic responses, they could relate the answers by using a mathematical concept and count systematically.
