Let's chat about fractions - they're a big deal in KS3 Maths! Fractions have different ways of being written. For example, ten twentieths can be 10⁄20, but guess what? It's the same as 2⁄4 or 1⁄2. Changing fractions into simpler forms is called simplification.

Divide both by 10, and bam, you get 1 and 2. So, 10⁄20 in its simplest form is 1⁄2. Remember to look for those best buddies, and you'll find simplification is a piece of cake!
