Abstract

This article was written based on the results of a study evaluating students’ errors in problem solving of permutation and combination in terms of problem solving steps according to Polya. Twenty-five students were asked to do four problems related to permutation and combination. The research results showed that the students still did a mistake in understanding the problems related to permutation and combination, the students still made a mistake in planning problem solving related to permutation and combination, and the students still had a mistake in rechecking the problems given. Besides, there were some students who did the combination problem by using the permutation problem.
