The video tutorial explains the concept of rational numbers, focusing on positive and negative rational numbers. It provides examples to illustrate how numerators and denominators determine the sign of a rational number. The tutorial also covers equivalent rational numbers, demonstrating how multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero integer results in equivalent fractions. The video aims to clarify these mathematical concepts with practical examples.
