Equation and inequality are aspect of the traditional mathematical content that are primary in describing, modelling and interpreting change fenomena. The study aims to describe fundamental mathematical capability of student’s mathematical literacy in the one variable linear equation and inequality. They are communication; mathematizing; representation; using simbolic, formal and technical languange and operation; devising strategies for problem solving; reasoning and argument; and using mathematical tools. This study used qualitative descriptive method. The data was collected through tests and interviews. 102 subjects seventh grade students of MTs Negeri 1, MTs Negeri 2 and MTs Negeri 4 Kebumen did the writen test. 9 students with high, moderate and low categories are selected with purposive sampling for interviewed. The result shows that students are lack in all fundamental mathematical capability, especially in representation; using simbolic, formal and technical languange and operation; devising strategies for problem solving; reasoning and argument; and using mathematical tools capabilities.
