Crystal Ball (Part 2) (Comparing the value of the product to one of its factors based on the other factor)

The video tutorial explains how to predict the size of a product based on its factors. It begins by introducing the concept of a product and its factors, then explores how multiplying by numbers greater than or less than one affects the product. The tutorial provides examples and general rules for predicting whether a product will be greater than, less than, or equal to one of its factors. The lesson concludes with a practical example to reinforce the concepts learned.
