The video tutorial explains how to use partial quotients to divide numbers. It begins with estimating the product of the divisor and a number close to the dividend, subtracting to find the remainder, and repeating the process until the remainder is less than the divisor. The partial quotients are then added to find the final quotient, and the remainder is noted. The tutorial also includes a verification step to ensure the division is correct by multiplying the quotient by the divisor and adding the remainder to match the original dividend.
