The video tutorial explains how to solve a logarithmic equation using the property that if two logarithms with the same base are equal, their arguments must also be equal. The tutorial provides a step-by-step solution to the equation log base 4 of 6X equals log base 4 of 4x + 5, resulting in x = 2.5. The solution is verified by substituting back into the original equation, confirming the correctness of the solution.
