The video tutorial teaches how to solve real-world math problems by finding the area of a rectangle using multiplication. It explains the concept of area through examples, such as comparing the areas of pizzas and determining if there is enough paint to cover a door. The tutorial also addresses common misunderstandings, like confusing area with perimeter, and emphasizes the efficiency of multiplication over repeated addition.
