The video tutorial explains how to solve one-step equations by isolating the variable. It covers two examples: solving x - 2.3 = 4.9 and 12.2 + x = 15.9. The process involves performing inverse operations to isolate x and verify the solution by substitution. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the concept of making both sides of the equation equal.
