The video tutorial explains two methods to solve a problem involving logarithms. The first method involves converting the logarithm to exponential form, resulting in X = 1/E. The second method uses the properties of base E to eliminate the logarithm, also leading to X = E to the negative first. The tutorial emphasizes the goal of solving for X and the preference to avoid logarithms for more precise answers.
