The video tutorial explains a division strategy using the distributive property. It begins with a simple example of dividing 36 by 3, demonstrating how to decompose the dividend into parts that are easily divisible by the divisor. The process involves breaking down 36 into 30 and 6, dividing each by 3, and summing the results to find the quotient. The tutorial then progresses to a more challenging example, dividing 104 by 8. The dividend is decomposed into 80 and 24, both divisible by 8, to find the quotient. This method simplifies division by using mental math and basic facts.
