The video tutorial on the 'Math is Simple' YouTube channel explains how to solve one-step equations using the division property of equality. It provides two examples: solving 9x = 360 and 5p = 75, demonstrating the step-by-step process of isolating the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by the coefficient. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of keeping equal signs aligned and understanding the role of coefficients. It concludes by encouraging viewers to explore additional videos on related mathematical properties.
