The video tutorial explains a technique to determine if a number is divisible by 7. The method involves taking the last digit of the number, multiplying it by two, and subtracting this from the remaining digits. If the result is divisible by 7, then the entire number is divisible by 7. The video provides an example with the number 525 and verifies the result by showing that 75 multiplied by 7 equals 525. It also addresses what to do if one is unsure about the divisibility of the resulting number, suggesting repeating the process.
