The video tutorial explains how to calculate the discounted price of a jacket originally priced at $169.95 with a 35% discount. It demonstrates two methods: using proportions and a quicker method involving decimal conversion. The proportions method involves setting up a ratio and solving for the discounted price, while the quicker method calculates the discount amount directly and subtracts it from the original price. Both methods arrive at the same discounted price of $110.47.
