The video tutorial introduces rational numbers, explaining that they include fractions and decimals, and can be plotted on a number line. It distinguishes between whole numbers, integers, and rational numbers using a diagram. The tutorial also covers the concept of absolute value, explaining it as the distance from zero, and demonstrates how to compare numbers using absolute values. Practical exercises are provided to reinforce the concepts of plotting rational numbers and understanding absolute values.
