The video tutorial introduces the concept of volume, focusing on rectangular prisms. It explains how volume is the space inside a 3D shape and provides the formula for calculating it: length times width times height. The tutorial includes examples with whole numbers and fractions, demonstrating how to convert mixed numbers to improper fractions for calculations. It concludes with a reminder to label answers correctly and offers additional help through a math club.
