This video tutorial covers multi-step problems involving percents. It begins with an introduction to basic percent calculations, followed by three examples: calculating a restaurant bill with tip and tax, determining if a shopper can afford boots with a discount and tax, and a complex discount calculation for a table saw. The video emphasizes understanding the order of operations in percent problems and provides step-by-step guidance for each example.
