The video tutorial by Mr. Nutty focuses on solving word problems, emphasizing the importance of making a plan. It uses a practical example of Maria buying soap to illustrate how to identify the correct mathematical operation, highlighting the role of keywords like 'each' in determining whether to multiply or divide. The tutorial suggests drawing a picture to visualize the problem, ultimately confirming that multiplication is the correct approach to find the total number of soap bars.
