Division Using the Area of a Rectangle

The video tutorial explains how to solve the division problem 780 / 12 by using the concept of a rectangle's area. It starts by defining the terms dividend, divisor, and quotient. The tutorial then uses the analogy of a rectangle's area to represent the division equation, where the area is the dividend, the width is the divisor, and the length is the quotient. By estimating and calculating the area of rectangles, the tutorial demonstrates how to find the quotient, which is 65. The lesson concludes by reinforcing the relationship between multiplication and division.
