Division Strategies and Problem Solving

The video tutorial introduces a new strategy for solving division problems by breaking down the dividend into simpler numbers. The teacher demonstrates this method through several examples, including dividing 104 by 8, 96 by 6, 125 by 5, and 128 by 8. The strategy involves multiplying the divisor by 10 or another multiple to find simpler numbers, then dividing each part by the divisor and adding the results to find the quotient.
