The video tutorial explains how to determine the value of K that makes two functions continuous at X = 3. It involves setting up an equation, solving for K, and graphing the functions to visualize their intersection at the specified point. The process is similar to basic algebra, emphasizing the importance of both X and Y values being equal for continuity.
