The video tutorial explains how to divide fractions using a five-step process. It begins with an introduction to the concept of dividing fractions and the importance of finding the quotient. The tutorial then outlines the five steps: keeping the first fraction the same, changing the division sign to multiplication, flipping the second fraction to its reciprocal, multiplying the numerators and denominators, and simplifying the result. The video provides a detailed example of dividing 56 by 2/3, demonstrating each step and simplifying the final answer. The lesson concludes with a recap and encouragement to practice more.
