The video tutorial explains how to calculate the probability of making a free throw, given a 70% success rate. It explores the probability of scoring exactly two times in six attempts using combinatorics and binomial coefficients. The tutorial provides examples and calculations to illustrate the process, concluding with a 6% probability of achieving exactly two scores in six attempts.
