The video tutorial explains how to determine the appropriate larger box for packaging 20 smaller boxes with specific dimensions. It emphasizes that checking volume alone is insufficient and highlights the importance of considering dimensions to ensure all smaller boxes fit. The tutorial calculates the volumes of the smaller boxes and two potential larger boxes, Box 1 and Box 2. It then checks the dimensions of each larger box to see if they can accommodate the smaller boxes without wasted space. Ultimately, Box 2 is identified as the suitable choice, as it can fit all 20 smaller boxes.
