Curious Calculation Processes

The video tutorial demonstrates a curious calculation where any counting number, when doubled, added by six, divided by two, and then subtracted by the original number, results in three. The process is illustrated with examples using the numbers 19 and 352. The video concludes by stating that this result is consistent for any counting number and invites viewers to see the description for a proof.
