Understanding Models in Mathematics

The video tutorial explains the concept of three-fourths using different models: set, linear, and area. It demonstrates how three-fourths can be visualized in each model and shows the equivalence of 3/4 to 9/12. The tutorial uses visual aids to help learners understand fractions better.
