The aim of this study was to describe number sense profile of elementary students with object imagery, spatial imagery, and verbal cognitive style in fractions. Research began by giving mathematical ability test and cognitive style questionnaire to determine the subjects, then giving number sense test and doing interview with each of them. The subjects were three male students with object imagery, spatial imagery, and verbal cognitive style who had equal grade mathematical ability test. The results showed that: 1) the number sense of object imagery-student was described by compared and ordered fractions; changed fraction to decimal and shaded region; understood two equivalent expressions; understood the effect of operation; and determined the length of objects. 2) The number sense of spatial imagery-student was described by understood decimal place value; compared and ordered fractions; changed fraction to decimal, shaded region and located fractions in number line; understood two equivalent expressions; understood the effect of operation and can estimate right number as result; used mental computation; and determined the length of objects. 3) The number sense of verbal-student was described by understood decimal place value; compared and ordered fractions; changed fraction to decimal and shaded region; understood two equivalent expressions; understood the effect of operation was given; and determined the length of objects.
