Order of Operations and Expressions

The video tutorial explains how to solve a mathematical expression using the order of operations. It begins by presenting the expression and clarifying the importance of following the correct sequence: parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), and addition and subtraction (from left to right). The tutorial emphasizes that there are no parentheses or exponents in the given expression, so the focus is on multiplication and division. The first operation to solve is multiplication, specifically 6 * 5, as per the order of operations.
