Summary

Introduction

Mathematics is a subject that is always given special attention in schools. This is because mathematics is related to many other fields and disciplines. Nurul et al (2019) further explained that students’ failure to master the basic concepts of mathematics would increase their probability of using the wrong strategies, which in turn, result in errors and misconceptions in solving mathematical problems (Nurul et al, 2019). Based on this statement, it is believed that students should possess a strong mathematical foundation to help them learn mathematics effectively
