The video tutorial explains how to use proportions to solve problems involving percents. It begins with an introduction to the concept of percents as fractions out of 100, making comparisons easier. The tutorial then provides three examples: finding a part of a whole, determining the whole from a part, and calculating the percent. Each example uses the method of setting up a proportion and solving it through cross-multiplication. The video concludes with an invitation for questions.
