The video tutorial explains how to convert customary units of capacity. When converting from a larger unit to a smaller unit, multiplication is used. For example, converting gallons to quarts involves multiplying by four, as there are four quarts in a gallon. Conversely, when converting from a smaller unit to a larger unit, division is used. For instance, converting pints to quarts requires dividing by two, since there are two pints in a quart. The video emphasizes the importance of using multiplication for larger to smaller conversions and division for smaller to larger conversions.
