The video tutorial introduces the concept of probability, focusing on simple and compound events. It explains the sample space as all possible simple events and uses a six-sided die to illustrate these concepts. Simple events are defined as outcomes that cannot be broken down further, while compound events involve multiple outcomes, such as rolling a number greater than 4. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate basic probability by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes, using examples like rolling a 1 or a number greater than 4.
