This video tutorial explains how to divide rational numbers, which include fractions and decimals. It begins with a definition of rational numbers and then covers the components of a division problem, such as the dividend, divisor, and quotient. The tutorial provides steps for dividing fractions by flipping the divisor and multiplying, as well as handling decimals by moving the decimal point. It also discusses how to approach problems with mixed fractions and decimals and how to determine the sign of the quotient when negative numbers are involved.
