Math provides systematic, planned thinking construction by studying
mathematics, students are expected to be critical, creative, systematic, patient, logical,
conscientious, rational, careful and patient. Math is a science that plays an important role in human life it can function to develop the ability to calculate, measure, degrade and use the mathematical formulas that are used daily through algebra, geometry, mathematical logic, opportunity and statistic. All the material in math is important. One of the most important materials is algebra. It is part of vital mathematics to help solve math problems, for in algebra it is learned about mathematical symbols and how to manipulate them, as Herstain (Paridjo, 2018 ) notes that algebra is a study of mathematical symbols and rules to manipulate them. According to Abet and Brown (Paridjo, 2018 ) that thinking algebra is the use of mathematical symbols and tools to analyze different conditions in a way (1 ) applying information mathematically in the form of words, tables, diagrams, graphs, and equations, and (2 ) interpret and use mathematical discoveries such as solving unknown values, testing proving and locating a function, to think algebra may be defined as the way person or students uses algebra with symbols, although not always letters, for quantitative circumstances are contested. Quantitative circumstances imply that students will later be required to use various forms of representation resolving the situation. Each student has different ways of solving a math problem. This is because each student has a different character or characteristic of solving math problems, some are quick to speak up and others have repeated thoughts. In the learning process, there are underlying factors: internal and external factors. Internal factors are factors that affect the learning process as well as the result of the learning process that comes from within the individual, whereas external factors are outside the individual as social and environmental and instrumental factors. Internal factors are divided into two, the physiological and psychological factors. The physiological factor in physical condition, in which the blind person must experience a learning process that is different from that of the person with good eyesight. The psychological factor is the mental state of one's personality, motivation, emotions, talents and interests (Pambudi, 2016). From the foregoing it can be concluded that study factors are also affected by the psychological factors of a student's personality. This is strengthened by Tohirin (Firstiane, 2018: 3) sharing factors that influence learns in two aspects. (1) the physiological aspect of one's general physical state or condition. In this regard, the condition of special organs such as hearing health, vision also greatly affects students in absorbing information or lessons; (2) the psychological aspect includes level of intelligence, education, educational talent, students' interests, educational interests, motivation, attention, maturity and preparedness. The learning process is linked to the learning of students. Students who practice meticulous action certainly have different results than students that are accustomed to confidence in their jobs, so different learning processes from learning and problem solving skills for each student. Everyone when communicating has different responses. This is where individual differences can be seen. Some people are open to their thoughts, feelings and experiences, but there are also those who are closed to their thoughts, feelings and experiences. This is the personality difference between in each person, according to Carl Gustav Jung (Umaoh, 2015: 4) it can be said that human typology is extrovert and introvert. Extraversion is defined as hospitality, frankly, fast familiar, naturally accommodating, and easy to adapt to various situations, rarely feeling anxious, often speculating recklessly on unknown situations. While introversion, Is associated with hesitation, reflective, defensive, withdrawing from the object, and happy to hide behind a sense of distrust. There are similar studies related to algebraic thinking ability, the study carried out by Winda Sari (2013), which affects algebraic thinking ability to solve math problem (case study in eighth class SMP Negeri 1 Kaliwedi Cirebon). According to the research done, it has been found that the algebraic thinking ability has a positive effect on the student math problem solving. The research niche by zu 'ma wihdatul qur 'ani (2015 ) with the title of analysis of the students' algebraic thinks materials on linear equations and inequality systems. Studies have already been done to indicate that a class of students is divided into three categories, high groups , meddle groups and low groups. The high class algebra student thinking ability on parallel systems and linear inequality is good. The middle class algebra student thinking ability on parallel systems and linear inequality is sufficient. The lower-class algebra student thinking ability on parallel systems and linear inequality is lacking. The difference between my research and the research niche that previously involved thinking algebra and student personalities is extrovert and introvert personalities. Whereas earlier studies had more to do with thinking algebra with student ability. So I take the problem that intersects student algebra and student personality type, if there's any difference in thinking algebra a student with an extrovert personality with a student with an introverted personality.
