The video tutorial explains how to use base ten blocks to find the product of a whole number and a decimal. It defines the values of different base ten blocks and demonstrates how to model multiplication using these blocks. The process involves calculating the product, performing exchanges, and expressing the result in expanded form. The tutorial concludes by highlighting the benefits of using base ten blocks for visualization.
