The video tutorial explains how to determine if a number is a perfect cube and how to find the cube root of perfect cubes. It begins by defining a cube and comparing it to a square, highlighting their similarities and differences. The tutorial then provides examples of perfect cubes, such as 8 and 27, and explains how to calculate the volume of cubes to identify perfect cubes. Practice problems are included to reinforce the concepts, demonstrating how to find cube roots and determine if numbers like 827 are perfect cubes.
