The video tutorial introduces the concept of ratios as a comparison of two numbers and explains how they can be written in three different ways: using the word 'to', a colon, or as a fraction. It emphasizes the importance of simplifying ratios and maintaining the order of items being compared. The tutorial provides examples, including fish caught by Adam and Andrew, students to teachers, and shapes like triangles and circles. The video concludes with a reminder that Mumu Math uploads new math videos daily.
