This study examined Krutetskii's claim that high-ability students tend to recall information about the structure of mathematical problems they have solved, whereas low-ability students tend to recall, if anything, information about the problem's context. In general, the results supported Krutetskii's claim. The use of recalled information in the solution of related problems was also examined. A significant transfer effect was found, with respect to both performance and method of solution, from the solution and discussion of one problem to the solution of a structurally related problem.

This study aimed to analyze students’ errors in problem-solving activities for systems of linear equations. The descriptive qualitative method was adopted and applied to obtain and process the research data. Research subjects were selected using the purposive sampling technique. Three participants were chosen according to their mathematical proficiency levels. Data collection was conducted by tests to measure students’ problem-solving abilities and semi-structural interviews to gather qualitative information about students’ errors in solving systems of linear equations. The interview results were analyzed using narrative analysis to obtain accurate conclusions. The study found that (1) low-ability students tend to perform error at the comprehension stage, (2) medium-ability students are likely to perform error at the transformation stage, and (3) high-ability students tend to perform error at the process skills stage. The solutions based on the ability level are: (1) low-ability students are required to read the question carefully, educators should emphasize the problem-solving procedure, and students should strengthen their understanding of the prerequisite learning content in problem-solving; (2) medium-ability students have to focus on the emphasis and development of their skills in understanding the language of a problem and balance with improving their understanding of learning content and contextual exercising; (3) high-ability students are provided with exercises that can improve their counting speed and accuracy of the subject in resolving a problem.

General problem-solving steps consist of understanding the problem, developing a plan, implementing the plan and checking the result. The purpose of this study is to explore how well Indonesia junior secondary school students apply these four steps in solving mathematical problems, especially on plane geometry topics. Using a qualitative approach, with a sample of nine students, of which three students were from the low mathematics achievement category, three from the medium and three from the high category, were given a test and instructed to write the answers to each question step by step. The results were described and categorized into four groups. The first group consisted of students who used all of the four steps. The second and the third were for students who used the first three steps or the first two steps respectively. The fourth group was for those who could only show the first step. The study indicated that for this sample the level of mathematic ability corresponded to how the students applied their problem-solving steps. It was found that students with high ability were included in the first group, while those with moderate ability were in the second group. Low ability students were categorized into group four. Nevertheless, there was one student with high ability who did not to do the checking step and there was one student with low ability who was able to develop a plan.
