The video tutorial explores the concept of patterns in division, focusing on the relationship between parts of a division problem. It introduces the remainder theorem, explaining how it allows for quick determination of remainders without full division. The tutorial covers synthetic division, demonstrating how to apply the remainder theorem to solve mathematical problems efficiently.
