The video tutorial by Mr. J explains the difference between numerical and algebraic expressions. Numerical expressions consist of known numbers and operations, while algebraic expressions include variables representing unknown values. Examples of both types are provided, and viewers learn to identify whether an expression is numerical or algebraic. The video concludes with practice problems to reinforce the concepts.
