The video tutorial explains the division property, which states that any number or polynomial divided by itself equals one. This property is crucial for simplifying rational expressions. The instructor demonstrates this concept with two examples: one involving fractions and another involving polynomials. The first example simplifies a fraction by applying the division property to both numbers and variables. The second example simplifies a polynomial expression, showing how identical polynomials can be divided to simplify the expression. The video emphasizes the importance of this property in solving problems involving rational expressions.
