The video tutorial explains how to find a polynomial function given fractional and integer zeros. It addresses the challenge of fractional coefficients and demonstrates using inverse operations to eliminate fractions. The zero product property is applied to set factors equal to zero, and the FOIL method is used to multiply factors. Finally, terms are combined to form the polynomial without fractional coefficients.
