Our research work, carried out in one of the schools of the city of Natal/RN, aimed to investigate mathematical knowledge produced and/or used by students of EJA in their professions. In order to achieve this goal, we support ourselves in the Ambrosian conceptions of Ethnomathematics and in Problem Solving in the conception of Lourdes Onuchic (2015). In order to do so, it was necessary throughout the body of this research, starting from the empirical knowledge, as well as knowledge acquired from common sense, sometimes based on the experience of these students, who must remain in tune with the school knowledge. As for the methodological approach, we used the Ethnography procedures, such as field diary, semistructured interview, questionnaire application and participant observation, which helped us to analyze the conceptions of mathematical knowledge used and / or produced by EJA students In their professions. Based on the analysis of the data collected, we produced a didactic material, called the Educational Product, an indispensable technical production for the conclusion of the Professional Master in Teaching of PPGECNM - Post-Graduation Program in Teaching of Natural Sciences and Mathematics of UFRN. An educational tool that should be disseminated, analyzed and used by other teachers. This product was composed of problem situations related to the professional experience of one of the students of the school to which we conducted the research, in which we could perceive present mathematical ideas, at various moments in the execution of their professional activity.
