The video tutorial addresses a problem involving days of the week. It begins by posing a question about determining the day two days before tomorrow, given that the day before yesterday was Tuesday. The tutorial suggests using a table to model the sequence of days, making the problem more manageable. By marking today and using the known information, the sequence of days is established. Finally, the tutorial concludes that if today is Thursday, then two days before tomorrow (Friday) is Wednesday.
