The video tutorial demonstrates a mental math technique for adding numbers, specifically adding 5 to 68. The method involves breaking down the number 5 into 3 and 2, adding 2 to 68 to reach 70, and then adding the remaining 3 to get 73. This approach is explained both conceptually and visually using a number line, offering an alternative way to perform addition in one's head.

What is the main focus of the mental math technique introduced in the video?

• Adding numbers using a breakdown method

• Dividing numbers using estimation

• Multiplying numbers in your head

• Subtracting numbers quickly
