This study is aimed to determine whether the improvement of mathematical problem solving abilities of students who received problem-based learning with the cultural context was better than students who received the conventional learning. It was conducted using the semi-experimental research with the research population being all students in SMP Suci Murni. Sample selection was done randomly and selectively. The instrument used was the problem-solving ability teston the material of the two-variable Linear Equation System.Statistical analysis of the data in this study was carried out by t-test analysis. The results showed that: (1) the improvement of mathematical problem solving abilities of students who received problem-based learning with the cultural context was higher than students who received the conventional learning, namely the average N-gain for the experimental class was 0.37 and the control class was 0.26; (2) There was a significant difference between improving students’ mathematical problem solving abilities who received problem-based learning with the cultural context and students who received conventional learning, namely with the acquisition of a significance value of 0.004 where the value was <α, then H0 was rejected. Based on the results of this study, researcher suggests that problem-based learning with the cultural context in junior high school students can be used as an alternative for teachers to improve students’ problem solving abilities, especially on the material of the two-variable Linear Equation System.
