The video tutorial explains how to compare two mathematical expressions involving the number of green and blue balls in a bag. It translates the problem into mathematical terms, showing that the number of green balls is greater than the number of blue balls, and there is at least one blue ball. The tutorial then demonstrates how to solve the inequality between the expressions 2B and B+G, concluding that B+G is greater than 2B. Finally, it matches this solution to the correct choice among given options.
