The research instruments used were tests, interviews, and researchers. The data collection methods used in the study were the test method and the interview method. Validation of the data used is the triangulation method. The results of the tests and interviews were then analyzed using indicators of mathematical literacy ability to obtain data on mathematical literacy skills in solving problems. The results showed that the students' mathematical literacy skills were low, medium, high in the context of education and work were low. In the case of mathematical literacy in the context of education and work, students with low, medium, and high early mathematical abilities have the ability to interpret problems, apply simple procedural problem solving strategies but have not been able to fulfill the ability to represent different and different answers and communicate solutions
