The video tutorial explains how to determine the distance Jason traveled by train during his journey. Jason travels from home to a train station by bicycle at 10 mph and then takes a train to the city at 50 mph. The total journey is 30 miles and takes 1 hour. The tutorial sets up variables for the distances traveled by bike and train, formulates equations based on given speeds and total time, and solves these equations to find that Jason traveled 25 miles by train.
