The video tutorial explains how to add fractions with denominators of 10 and 100. It begins by reviewing the process of adding fractions with the same denominator, using examples like 4/10 + 3/10. The tutorial then addresses adding fractions with different denominators, such as 4/10 + 33/100, by converting the fraction with a denominator of 10 to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100. This is done by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 10. The video concludes with a general method for adding fractions with denominators of 10 and 100, emphasizing the importance of converting to a common denominator before adding.
