The video tutorial covers several mathematical problems, starting with the Hanoi Tower problem, where the goal is to move disks between rods with specific rules. It then moves on to an athlete and obstacle problem, requiring calculation of obstacles passed by athletes on a track. The next section deals with calculating distances between flagpoles on a street, using pattern recognition. The tutorial concludes with a final problem involving mathematical operations and a summary of the solutions.
