The low ability to understand this concept is because students are less able to explain or re-express the concepts they get. One of the approaches to learning mathematics that is applied to overcome the low ability to understand students' mathematical concepts is the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach. The Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach is one approach in the mathematics learning process to make it easier for students to absorb material and their experiences directly which are focused on placing problems found in daily activities. This study aims to determine the effect of the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach on Students' Mathematical Concept Understanding. This type of research is a quasi-experimental study and the design used is the pretest-posttest control group design. The population in this study were all students of class VIII of SMP Negeri 6 Percut Sei Tuan. The research sample was taken randomly as many as 2 classes, the research instrument used a test. Data analysis was carried out using the T test. The results of this study indicate that there is an effect of the realistic mathematics education (RME) approach on students' mathematical concept understanding.
