It highlights that a fraction is a numerical quantity representing a part of a whole, while a ratio is a comparison between quantities. The tutorial distinguishes between part to part and part to total ratios, noting that part to part ratios cannot be fractions, whereas part to total ratios can sometimes be equivalent to fractions. The video uses diagrams to illustrate these concepts and emphasizes the importance of context in understanding whether a ratio can be considered a fraction.
