The video tutorial explains prime factor decomposition using two methods: the tree method and the ladder method. It demonstrates how to break down numbers into prime factors and use these to find the highest common factor (HCF) and the lowest common multiple (LCM). The tutorial provides examples and explains the process of identifying shared factors for HCF and using prime factors for LCM. It concludes with a summary of the methods and their applications.
