Abstract
The research aimed to examine the relationship between numerical reasoning abilities and academic achievement in CNC (Computer Numerical Control) course and the contribution of numerical reasoning of CNC course. This study employed a survey method with correlational causal relationships. The stratified random sampling proportional technique is employed with 30 engineering students . The results of the study show the significant relationship between numerical reasoning and academic achievement of CNC course with r count = 0.76. The two coefficients are terminated by independent variables (predictors of X) for changes in the dependent variable (Y criterion) of R square = 57.8%. The results show that there is a positive relationship between the two variables. Therefore the learning experiences should provide the opportunities for students to develop their numerical reasoning.
