The video tutorial guides viewers through solving a division problem by finding a missing digit. It starts by setting up the problem, where a number greater than 700 is divided by a single digit to yield a two-digit quotient. The tutorial explains that the divisor must be 8 or 9, and through divisibility rules, it is determined to be 9. The sum of the digits must be divisible by 9, leading to the conclusion that the missing digit is 6. Thus, the division problem is 765 divided by 9, resulting in 85.
