Fractions and ratios are fundamental concepts in mathematics, often represented visually to aid understanding. KS2Gems has created a series of images in 2022 to help students grasp these concepts more effectively. The images are designed to prompt students to identify and express fractions and ratios based on the visual information presented. Fractions describe how many parts of a whole are being considered, while ratios compare quantities or amounts, showing the relationship between two or more values.

For instance, when presented with an image divided into several parts, students might be asked, "What are the fractions?" to determine the portion of the image shaded versus unshaded. Conversely, when the task is to find the ratio, students must compare different parts of the image, such as the number of shaded sections to unshaded ones, or one colour to another, and express this relationship as a ratio. These visual exercises are a practical way to enhance students' understanding of fractions and ratios, making them relatable and easier to comprehend through tangible examples.
