The subjects in this study were 32 students of SMP Negeri 2 Sukodadi Lamongan class 7B. This research method was descriptive qualitative research. The technique of taking the subject used the BSRI (Bem Sex-Role Inventory). Data collection techniques were by giving problem-solving tests and interviews. The results showed that the number of test scores for the multiple representation abilities of grade 7B students in solving problems for each gender had increased: the total number of test scores for questions A = 1,950 and B = 2,325.
