This research aims to describe students' conceptual errors based on learning styles in solving algebraic operations problems. This type of research is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The informants in this research were 25 class VII students of SMP Negeri 3 Huruna. Data were analyzed using data reduction steps, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The data collection techniques used were questionnaires, tests and interviews.
