This study aims to describe the types of representation of integer reduction in elementary school students. The subjects of this study were 22 students of grade IV SDK Sang Timur Malang and 23 students of class V of SD YPPK St. Petrus Jayapura. Data collection was carried out in two stages using assistive instruments, namely the LTS question sheet consisting of 3 item items, and task-based interviews. In the first stage, students’ complete questions consisting of 3 items, while researchers observe student learning activities while writing important notes to be confirmed at the interview. In the second stage, task-based interviews to explore and clarify the types of representations made by students and capture data that has not been obtained through test results. The data that has been obtained are analyzed by the stages of transcribing data, reducing data, categorizing data, drawing thinking structures, and making conclusions. The results of the study on the type of representation of deduction of integers in elementary school students, consisted of 4 types, namely the type of number line representation, the type of image representation of numbers, the type of representation of number models, and the type of image representation and number lines. © 2020, International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research.
