The video tutorial explains how to determine the volume of a marble when placed in a 26-liter tank. William uses 85 marbles and fills the rest with 20.9 liters of water. The tutorial sets up an equation to find the volume of one marble and solves it, resulting in 0.06 liters per marble. It further explores how much water is needed if 200 marbles are used, calculating that 14 liters of water would be required.
