The video tutorial explains how to predict the frequency of an event using theoretical probability. It begins with an example of rolling a six-sided die and predicting the occurrence of specific outcomes. The lesson covers the use of ratios to represent parts of a whole and addresses common mistakes in understanding probability, such as not creating equal parts. The tutorial also demonstrates how to calculate theoretical probability using examples like a spinner and a die, emphasizing the importance of equal sections. By the end, viewers learn to predict outcomes based on theoretical probability.
